This Dinosaur Dig dramatic play center is fun for kids learning about fossils and dinosaurs! It's a fun addition to pretend play centers in Pre-K, Preschool and Kindergarten. Why is dramatic play important? Pretend play helps kids to learn about themselves, the world and how things work. Dramatic play centers also help to strengthen a child's language development (e.g. expressive language, vocabulary), social skills and play skills. Children learn a lot through play!
