My Project

Our preschool students use their imaginations to learn about their world. Pretend play helps them to explore their natural curiosities about the world around them.

During dress-up play, children can "become" what they only see in books, movies, or in the world around them.

When the children wear a costume, it adds to the experience of role-play. The use of costumes and pretend play can help to develop more language skills, physical and fine motor skills, as well as social-emotional development--giving them the opportunity to safely experience and work through big emotions such as fear, anger, or shyness.
