Dramatic Play: More than Just the Housekeeping Corner

This workshop looks at discussing the importance of dramatic play and ways to encourage and expand on it within the classroom. We will explore ideas around materials and set-up for dramatic play areas both indoors and outdoors as well as conversations around children’s engagement in rough & tumble dramatic play (such as superhero play), and how we as educators can create an environment rich with socioemotional development.
