Meet A New Pal! Book Recommendations
Created By Samantha Colwell, 2016, Liberty Public Library
When children are involved
in make-believe play, they
make use of pictures they
have created in their minds
to recreate past experiences,
which is a form of abstract
thinking. When children
come together in this form of
play, they also learn how to
share ideas, and solve
problems together.
