Definitions
Noun
- 1 A themed collection of similar toys designed to work together to enact some action or event.
"For instance, the cluttered, homely design of, say, the Burrow, is in itself, a masterly piece of design; […] and, crucially, it can also be translated into commercial products, such as an area of the wizarding world theme park, a training level in a video-game, and a LEGO playset that currently retails at over £60."
- 2 A unitary structure for children to play on, typically including a slide, and often swings, ropes to climb on, and other things found as separate structures at public playgrounds.
"Your children can play on the small playset, climb through a hollow log, and draw a picture for all to see."
