Cook up delicious dishes with play food, treat a plush patient who came in with a boo-boo, run your own lil’ shop, or hop on a unicorn and gallop through an enchanted forest – all without having to leave the playroom.
Pretend play gives little ones the opportunity to take a deep dive into their imaginations, role-play all day, and learn a whole lot along the way. Entering the land of make-believe and playing pretend not only contributes to your child’s development but is a fun and essential part of being a kid.
