THE IMPORTANCE OF IMAGINE PLAYING AND ROLE-PLAYING: HOW DO PARENTS SUPPORT?

• Encourage imaginary play, knowing that imaginative play enables the child to acquire independent behavior and freedom of action.

• It should provide a variety of rich accessories and models for imaginary play. It should constantly add new tools and equipment for imaginary games to the playgrounds. It should make them as attractive as possible.

• Allow children to freely use all corners for imaginative play. Usually children play in house and block corner. The child should use every corner of the house with the desire for imaginary play and the energy that does not fit into its container. It should provide the necessary assistance in terms of materials.

• Children put themselves in someone else's shoes and use objects in place of other objects in imaginary games. They need to monitor these processes and listen carefully to the conversations children have. This allows the child to get to know closely.

• Children should recognize and reinforce when they describe an object or environment using gestures, words and sounds.

• Adults should participate respectfully when inviting children to pretend play. It should be very careful that all the proposed ideas fit the conditions of the child's play. All his suggestions should be based on the ideas of the children, not their own. In addition, the adult should respect the positive and negative reactions of children to their suggestions.

• Adults should address the person portrayed by the child rather than the child playing. In this way, the child sees the importance of his imaginary game and understands the value of the game better.
