1. “The importance of using our Imagination!!”
Role play is an important part of child development:
it builds confidence, creativity communication, physical development and problem solving.
allows children to get into character and act out real life roles or fictional performances.
It can be purely child-led, and encourages children to take risks and be creative with the role they are playing.
it’s a fun way for little ones to learn about different professions and day-to- day situations.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”
Albert Einstein
