Making the Most of Your Dramatic Play Corner

The dramatic play corner is far more than a "dress up" or "housekeeping" area. It is a learning environment where children test out different roles, explore relationships, experience being powerful and nurturing, learn to take the perspective of others, and share in creating and developing a story line. Come and learn how to incorporate children's play themes into powerful teaching tools. We will also explore using hollow blocks as an exciting vehicle for your dramatic play corner with fours and fives.
