In addition to listening to stories read aloud, children are learning a great deal about language, and expanding their vocabulary in this very important learning space.

The Dramatic Play area provides many opportunities for children to practice "Life Skills". Children learn about every day life in this space. They learn by exploring the items adults use on a daily basis, learn about empathy and nurturing while caring for dolls, and learn about the world around them by pretending to be community helpers, and exploring the roles of these important people during dress-Up play.

As with any learning space, you'll want to scope out how much room you have to dedicate to this area in your home. This is an active area, so you may want place it in an area away from your reading area, or other designated quiet spaces.
