My Project

Dramatic play within in a preschool classroom is more than just play. Dramatic play teaches important social and emotional skills such as taking turns, sharing, and respecting one another's opinions. Dramatic play allows students to use their imagination as well.

We recently had a dollhouse funded through Donors Choose and now we need to furnish it!

We are very excited about our new dollhouse, but we would like to add some furniture as well as other accessories to further encourage dramatic play. We are asking for kitchen, living room, dining room, children's bedroom and patio furniture as well as accessories to help complete the look of our new dollhouse.
