Dramatic play is the best example of imagination at work. Bella says to the class "My mommy got highlights" "Do you want some, Gracie?" Gabrielle and Taylor decided to help, Gabrielle tells Gracie, "Sit still girl, I can't braid your hair if you keep moving." Taylor says, "Close your eyes, it might burn." Students from diverse culture make this center most intersting. I love listening to them act out their day-to-day life bringing to the class different ways of doing things. They discuss colors of hair, eyes, and skin. They talk about different people in their families and their titles. Who knew their were so many ways to say "Grandma". We have Mi Mi's and Gi Gi's and Nanna's and the list goes on. I even learned that there is peroxide in the dye (lol) you have to mix the color you want in there, one of the girls rambled and another asked for a timer so it didnt stay on too long. Have you ever sat back and listened to your child PLAY?
