Why Children LOVE Soft Swords: Pretend play with our Soft Swords brings joy to children by encouraging active play and developing their hand-eye coordination. * Open-ended play with Soft Swords allows children to express their imagination and supports their independence. * Nourishing the body with Soft Swords adds movement into the play of the child, developing their coordination, proprioception, and gross motor skills.  * Growing with the child sets our toys apart from any other toy, allowing for a limitless range of play possibilities, and years of lasting play value. Rainbow Soft Swords measure 17-inches in length and are made from soft but stiff foam. Covered with our jacquard pattern silk handle with a rainbow silk 'blade'. They go well with our Crowns, and Capes. Fun for ages 3 and up.
