What do the kids on your list want for Christmas this year? Chances are good they've asked for at least one gift that involves pretend play. And that's a good thing!
They may not realize it, but the dolls and dollhouses, action figures and play sets they're asking for are not only playthings, but teaching tools too. Studies show that kids who play dress up and use their imaginations to bring action figures, dolls and stuffed animals to life learn social and language skills, creativity and discipline too. They are also more intellectually advanced than their peers.
