"Rain rain go away...." is a frequent song my toddler sings these days. On these rainy days a wonderful activity is dramatic play.
Sometimes things can go a bit awry and you might have encountered some stumbling blocks when hosting a friend for a play day.
Here is a wonderful article about the benefits to this treasured tradition - with some tips to help guide your children through their play and get it back on track. After all the whole purpose is for children to build resiliency by practicing sharing, taking turns, and listening to their friends.
Warmly,
Katherine
