Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Dramatic play encourages children to explore their imaginations, allowing them to immerse themselves in various roles and scenarios. With the proposed materials, children can envision themselves in real-life situations, making connections between what they observe in the world and their play experiences.

A cash register is an essential element for nurturing early numeracy skills and promoting social interactions.

Through pretend play as cashiers and customers, children can explore concepts of money, practice basic math, and develop communication and negotiation skills.

The Lakeshore Hardwood Doll Changing Table offers kids an opportunity to engage in nurturing and caretaking role-play. This imaginative play scenario fosters empathy, responsibility, and a deeper understanding of caregiving roles in society.

A pretend market set with play food items, baskets, and shopping carts provides an exciting platform for children to role-play as shoppers, vendors, and cashiers. This setup promotes language development, cooperation, and decision-making as children engage in various scenarios and social exchanges.
