About Play Press Playboard

Play Press makes all their playsets from Playboard — a sturdy, sustainably sourced cardboard certified to FSC® standard (FSC-C004309). The material is thick enough to hold 3D assembled pieces upright and rigid, durable enough to withstand repeated play sessions, and fully recyclable. Pieces slot and connect together using tab-and-slot construction — the same principle used in architectural models — which means no adhesive is needed and the set can be disassembled and reassembled. The flat-pack format stores neatly in its original packaging when not in use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to assemble?

No — pieces pop out from the pre-cut boards and slot together using tab-and-slot connections. Children aged 5–7 will need some adult help with the first assembly, particularly for smaller pieces and the 3D standing figures. Children aged 8 and up can generally work through it independently. Once assembled the first time, children become familiar with the construction and can reassemble it themselves.

Is it durable enough for repeated play?

Yes — Playboard is a thick, sturdy cardboard designed for repeated assembly and play, not a single-use craft project. The tab-and-slot connections hold pieces firmly upright during play and release cleanly when disassembled. With normal care the set holds up across many play sessions. The flat-pack design also means it stores neatly and isn’t taking up shelf space as a permanent display.

Is it a good gift?

Yes — it’s a strong gift for Shaun the Sheep fans aged 5 and up. The combination of building and imaginative play makes it more engaging than a static figurine set — children construct the scene themselves before playing in it, which adds a creative dimension that extends the play value. A good birthday gift for children who love Aardman characters, building, or farm-themed play.
