Reception Class - Imaginative Play
Today, the children embraced the warmer weather by spending time outdoors, engaging in imaginative play through dressing up. This type of pretend play is vital for their development, fostering creativity, social skills, and emotional expression. By adopting various roles and scenarios, they enhance their cognitive abilities and learn to navigate different social situations.   According to the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, such activities contribute significantly to children’s personal, social, and emotional development, as well as their communication and language skills. Encouraging pretend play supports their ability to express themselves and understand the world around them. We look forward to more sunny days filled with exploration and creative adventures!
