Dramatic Play Ideas

For this week, in the three year old classroom, the children made a garden for their dramatic play area. I brought in a cardboard box and slit three holes in it. The box represents the ground from where the vegetables grow.  The class colored some vegetables (carrots, green beans, tomatoe, peppers). I made a carrot, tomato and green beans to show the group how the garden looks. After they were finshed, we discussed why vegetables were healthy and good for us to eat, what veggies ghey lke to eat and how vegetables grow. Then, I let them slide their vegetables into the slits and pretend they're growing a garden. The second project we did had to do with making annimals. We made a bear and a sheep. The childen loved playing wigh them after they were finished and were pretending to be the animals.
