Dress up and pretend play are important activities for children. They help children to develop creativity, imagination, and problem-solving skills. Classroom dress up supplies can include items such as costumes, accessories, props, and scenery. Spread your dress up and pretend play resources out on the rug and watch your students learn!

Consider what work best for your classroom

When choosing dress up and pretend play classroom supplies, it is important to consider the age and abilities of the children. Make sure that the supplies are safe and appropriate for the children to use. Also, consider how the dress up and pretend play supplies will be used. Will they be used for individual play or group activities? Think about what materials the pretend play props are made of and if they can be cleaned easily.

Use play to learn

At Staples, we have a variety of dress up and pretend play supplies for your classroom. Pretend play and dress up can be a learning opportunity for your classroom. If you want to teach counting and simple math, then consider a pretend play cash register from Learning Resources. Students can learn fractions with a pretend play pizza set as well!

Grow and develop skills needed for the future

Students can learn life skill through pretend play and dress up. Dress up in the classroom can get students used to fastening buttons and using snaps to dress themselves. Pretend play sets can help younger students develop hand and eye coordination with elements like building blocks from Learning Advantage and tool sets. Building verbal communication is key to a young child's development and social skill, and dress up and pretend play supports that growth in the classroom by encouraging students to interact and communicate in way they don't normally get to at school.
