Izzy 4:3 Role Play and being 4

I just noticed how many of the recent posts are about Role Play.  It really is how she spends most of her day, from changing clothes to using props, both of which enhance her play.   

At home her role play is mostly by herself as her sisters are a bit old to join her in this type of play (I of course am not). 

When at school with similar aged friends the role play takes many forms, usually depending on the stages of the children she is with, she and her friends can shift between solitary to parallel to associative and sometimes cooperative group play ( short bursts).  

But through all this Role Play she is developing and learning about her world, she is making sense of her thoughts and ideas and is confident to test them out.
