To some, using doll heads as loose parts may seem gruesome. They don’t like the aesthetics of kids running around with severed heads. That’s understandable, but having some extra heads around is beneficial if you’re playing Brain Surgeon or Mad Scientist. A pile of random heads may spark Azka to build bodies for them in the craft area. Or Deni might launch them with catapults and slingshots as she explores trajectory schema. The point is that play is in the child, not the toy, and these items can spark some interesting play.
