The language of this magazine is very simplistic, there are no hard reading words or high level of grammar used. The word 'essential,' shows connotations of the magazine being well needed for its aimed target audience. Towards the bottom of the magazine there are a few sentences aligned right, the writing being in a bold font. One rhetorical question, where the answer is likely to be answered inside. The website name is also a large focus of the magazine, centered at the bottom. The layout of the 'Play-times,' works well as it is simple and straight forward. The picture in the background is a large close up image of a young girl aged approximately about 4, where she is smiling showing connotations of happiness and elegance. The title is then featured in bold, centered at the top with a large yellow band behind it, which makes it stand out. The colours used are blue, yellow, pink and orange. These being very contrasting together. The photo and the colours engage the audience towards a positive attitude about the magazine.
