DOLLSVILLA
IN MUSEUM
The original, handmade DollsVilla by
Liliane® from 1997/1998, a design by
Liliane Limpens, becomes part of the
permanent museum collection of the
fairy-tale Museum Children's World [1969] in
Roden, near Groningen in the north of
the Netherlands. The museum has an
impressive collection of old dolls and
bears. Children can actively play [together]
in the museum café with a second one, a
new DollsVilla from the 2019 production
series.
Museum
curator Mara Bosboom: "This way the
children can see the
development of a prototype into its
final market shape."
In 1969 the Dutch Museum Children's
World Foundation in Roden was founded by
the Association for Tourist Traffic and
the Association of Folk Entertainment.
At the same time, in this year an appeal
was made via the ANP to the Dutch
population to look at toys from the past
in the attic. This call was met with
mass response and it was the start of a
unique collection. Two foundations
currently manage the Children's World
Toy Museum: Dutch Museum Children's
World Foundation and Foundation for
preserving the Museum Children's World
Collection.
Children's World Museum offers guided
tours, a senior package, a package for children's parties and school trips.
Teaching material will soon be available, which will enable primary schools
to achieve official learning objectives.

New primary school in Amsterdam-Noord
DOLLSVILLA
& SMALL AMSTERDAMMERS
Klein Amsterdam will integrate the
DollsVilla by Liliane® in its education
in the coming period. 'Learning in the
gap', a school concept where not the
method but the child and his or her
individual development are central, in
accordance with the dynamics of the 21st
century. Inspired by the pedagogical
approaches of Reggio Emilia, Loris
Malaguzzi and John Dewey. A new primary
school with indoor school care.
"Our mission is to create a school as a space in between; a safe shelter, in
which school and environment are integrally connected, so that children
learn optimally from and with each other, from the neighborhood, city,
culture and society."

Rye Free Reading
NEW YORK
LIBRARY
& THE DOLLSVILLA
Lots of family fun in the garden of the Rye
Library New York, gathered around the
dutch DollsVilla by Liliane®. A Vehicle
Fair, to support the library.
The library began as the dream of a few
concerned citizens who met in 1884. They
formed a constitution for a new library
organization, primarily as a place for
young men and boys to recreate and
escape the undesirable effects of
saloons. In 2003, the gracious new
program wing and the expanded children’s
room were again largely funded by
donations from a community committed to
maintaining a library often called the
Jewel of Rye.
"We must learn to be protectors of
nature and appreciate everything that it provides us. It is
important for young children to be around natural materials, to be
able to touch, feel, smell and interact with their unblemished
nature."
"I am passionate about introducing children to the wonders of
wood through play as this interaction contributes to an awareness of
sustainability at a young age. Children are capable of developing a
real connection with the products of this earth and we need to
encourage that as much as possible for our Planet to thrive."
The DollsVilla by Liliane is a sustainable dolls house, built at a
child's height. Made of FSC birch plywood, beech and stainless
steel. FSC standards have been developed to protect the forests'
biodiversity and ecological processes.
Made With Respect has been created with a purpose: All
the brands fall within our 4 pillars and align with one or more of the
following values. MWR is a positive movement, where buying conscious brands
is the norm. For a sustainable future for our people on our planet.

dreams take shape in images and language.

Language class for refugee children De
Zonnewijzer Roermond
THE LANGUAGE ON OUR PRIMARY SCHOOL
GROWS
TREMENDOUSLY
BY THE DOLLSVILLA
"Our Language Class has been extended with a DollsVilla by Liliane®
since September 2018. What an asset it is! Both young and old can be
amused by the different possibilities of the PoppenVilla."
"There are children who have not yet had any education in their native
country, and this often causes them to have a hard time acquiring the
new language. It requires a lot of creativity from the teacher and the
children to make them part of the group, so they can actively
participate in the classroom. The DollsVilla is a great invention to
involve everyone in the process."
Development of the children by the DollsVilla by Liliane®:
∆
Social emotional development
∆ Spatial awareness
∆ Play development
∆ Extension vocabulary
∆ Working attitude
∆ Discipline
"The language grows tremendously throughout the DollsVilla
by Liliane®, children
play with both dolls and cars, so that they tell each other what they
are doing. For example, the themes such as the home, interior and exterior and family are
greatly expanded by the DollsVilla. Through the touch and the
experience children learn what happens in the Netherlands. Unfortunately,
many children in our language class miss the Dutch language at home
because parents can not speak it. Because of the DollsVilla and the play that is being organized, they also learn to talk with the dolls in Dutch
at home."
"You can notice that
the DollsVilla has been well thought out, everything at the villa is
solidly built and playable for the children. And there is also the
option for the children to remodel the house as they would like. A very
nice goal of Liliane who in this way beautifully commited to the
language of refugee children in the Netherlands."
