A lot of youngsters develop invisible friends.
They are often a way of investigating imaginative play.
Why are they created?
Well, it's widely thought they are often a form of comfort. Usually in times of boredom or lonliness.
Imaginary friends are also often associated as a form of soothing during a big transition.
For example when parents separate; moving to a new house or school. Or when the house increases with a new arrival.
In fact it utilises a lot of fledgling social skills as well as creative ones !
