The career costumes and washable baby dolls I have requested will help my students engage in dramatic play. This allows children to perform different roles and test their own creativity and the reactions and responses of those around them. Children learn many things through trial and error, and what better and safer way to try out various scenarios and situations than through pretending you are in them. Teachers often encourage the children to imagine themselves in vital roles within our community, through dress-up costumes and using child-friendly props to emulate the tools and equipment that these occupations use regularly. Dramatic play helps our little learners to put themselves in someone else’s shoes. This sort of pretend play helps children to see things from another person’s perspective teaching skills such as empathy and understanding. With dramatic play, children can control the situation, and often choose safe or powerful roles such as the teacher, the parent, the king, or the queen. During pretend play a child’s dreams and wishes can come true, with no consequences.
