Dramatic Play is a great way to develop oral language skills, cooperation, content vocabulary and social skills in your early childhood classroom!
Use this packet to set up a Post Office dramatic play area in your learning space. It doesn’t need to cost a lot of money, in fact you probably have a lot of resources already around the classroom or home that you can use! You might even like to ask your students to help collect objects they can use!
In order to save you some time preparing signs, labels and printables for your imaginative play, I’ve created a bunch of wonderful printables ready to use in your Post Office role-play area!

Our printables are designed to be user-friendly and require basic supplies you likely already have at home, such as crayons, scissors and glue.

Holly Morrison –
I absolutely love these sets – so easy to prepare, and I really like that there are different options for names of some of the items. The list of things to collect to set up the play set is also helpful.
