To Infinity and Beyond!


It is amazing to see what happens when you combine a cardboard box, some empty juice bottles, a few additional props and add some preschoolers.  Our rocket ship center has been a blast (sorry I couldn't resist).  The items you see in the photo are used in most of our dramatic play. The rocket boosters have been airpacks for the firestation and scuba gear on the beach.  All these items fit in a laundry basket and provide lots of entertainment for our preschoolers. If your child likes to play 'dress up',  gather up some old cameras, cell phones, a few suitcases or backpacks, a keyboard, old maps and some small notebooks and pencils. Your child will fill in the blanks with their imagination.
