Hi Shaunna, I found you through the SITS Girls Tribe Building Challenge. Pretend play is my favorite! I always feel like a kid again when we pretend to run a bakery or doctor’s office. These are some great ideas, several I have never seen before! We definitely be doing some of them! I hope you have a nice week!
