Any dramatic play area should be inviting. Presentation alone should inspire creative and imaginative play. 
 
Dramatic play can be defined as a type of play where children accept and assign roles, and then act them out.  It is a time when they break through the walls of reality, pretend to be someone or something different from themselves, and dramatize situations and actions to go along with the roles they have chosen to play.
 
Children should have an area where they can immediately take on a role and begin pretending. This type of play remains an integral part of the developmental learning process by allowing children to develop skills in such areas as abstract thinking, literacy, math, and social studies, in a timely, natural manner.
