Dramatic play should be a primary part of every child's early childhood activities.  This pretend play encourages a child to explore and expand his imagination by allowing him to invent and create his own scenarios.

As a child explores various ways to play, he will increase his problem solving skills, langauge skills, vocabulary skills, and story telling skills. 

Dramatic play also promotes a child's willingness to cooperate and share with others, which will increase his communication skills and other social skills.

Dramatic play is only limited to a child's imagination, and little children have very big imaginations.
