Learning Through Play: Home Corner and Dramatic Play

Home corner environments encourage children to explore and recreate real life scenarios and situations in a play context. Children draw on their own experiences to create their play, socialise with their friends, communicate their ideas and express their emotions. Children often substitute play objects for real life objects, which promotes imagination and creativity.

Supports Social & Emotional Wellbeing

Home Corner and Dramatic Play are very important for children’s learning and development as they feel safe, secure and supported. Children become aware of fairness and become strong in their social and emotional wellbeing. Children develop dispositions for learning such as curiosity, cooperation, confidence, creativity, commitment, enthusiasm, persistence, imagination and reflexivity.
