Play is our Brain’s Favorite way of learning. – Diane Ackerman
Whether we call it dramatic play, imaginative play, creative play, role-playing, make-believe, or just plain pretending… it’s a particularly important part of healthy childhood development.
Dramatic play allows children to perform different roles and test their own creativity and the reactions and responses of those around them. Children learn many things through trial and error, and what better and safer way to try out various scenarios and situations than through pretending you are in them!
We often encourage the children to imagine themselves in vital roles within our community, through dress-up and using child-friendly props to boost their confidence. It also develops their language and communication skills. During pretend play children often talk from the perspective of their pretend role or the character they are playing. Children express themselves more and discuss their wishes at that moment, no matter how farfetched or silly.
On March 1st, 2022 BFKG organized the event “House of Dreamers” in which all the sections of Class Nursery performed extraordinarily.
Each class took a beautiful, meaningful story and performed on it with full expressions, acting, and lip sync. And at the end of their play, the students beautifully performed together. It was such a delightful scene for the parents and the teachers to see their children performing independently and confidently.
