Tomorrow at The Academy of Gateway we are dressing up as our favorite story book characters.
When children play dress up they are using their imagination and developing more than you can imagine!
Look at all the things going on when children play dress up:
Dress up engages your child's brain and memory.
Builds their vocabulary through imitations and conversations.
Problem Solving: Who's going to do what? They are making decisions.
Role playing helps them see through each others eyes, developing empathy.
Role playing helps children make sense of the world and process their feelings.
They develop fine motor skills while putting on costumes.
Children learn social skills through cooperation and negotiation.
When children engage in dress-up play, their imaginations are given free reign. There is no limit to who, where, or what they can be.
