Imagination Station (Dramatic Play Makeovers)

Does your playroom often get transformed into a pirate ship, a train station, a superhero battleground, or even a rocket ship headed to outer space? This is all part of what is called Dramatic Play where kids will assign and accept roles and then act them out. Here at AoFC our kids absolutely love dramatic play and being able to use their imaginations by making us so much food, and selling us things from the store, and calling up all of their friends. There are also so many benefits that come along with participating in dramatic play such as teaching self-regulation, conflict resolution, and even help relieve emotional tension. Our teachers have transformed their dramatic play centers into different themes, such as Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, Firefighters working, and even a salon. And our kids are having so much fun learning and using their imagination!

These little firefighters are ready to get to work! Time to save the day!
