dramatic play
Dramatic play is a type of play where children accept and assign roles and then act them out. It is essentially a type of role-playing. It's an important part of child development, as it helps them to learn social roles and rules, improves their understanding of the world around them, cultivates creativity and imagination, aids emotional development and builds verbal and non-verbal communication skills. This type of play can be both spontaneous and guided by an adult or teacher.
