When the two sections are placed together, there is room for two children to sit in the driver's cab and two on the back seat.
If the two sections are separated and chairs are placed between them, as many children as you like can travel in the 'bus'. This
function is conducive to role play: "All aboard! Where shall we go today?"
Grip holes are provided on the sides of both bus
sections, making it possible to move them rather like a
wheelbarrow. This makes it easier for the children to
open and close the bus sections on their own.
The rear section of the bus is subdivided by the curtain and the back of the driver's seat. This arrangement creates a
separate cab for the driver and makes a pleasant 'travelling'.
The curtain can be drawn aside, or fixed in a closed position with a velcro fastener. It creates a small window through which
passengers on the back seat can peep into the driver's cab. The dividing curtain also gives children the possibility of playing
puppet theatre or shop.
To let all the children know what's on offer in the grocer's shop, or what is being performed in the puppet theatre today, there
are blackboards for chalk announcements on each side of the back section. The number plate of the MultiMOBIL, too, can
be written on with chalk - you can inscribe whatever 'registration number' you fancy - or the name of the kindergarten group.
Our MultiMOBIL offers children the possibility of seven different play situations. These include: Play car (sections placed
together), School bus (sections separated and chairs placed between the front and back section), Puppet theatre, Shop Games
