Post Office Open for Business

If you find yourself in need of a stamp, please stop by the 4K room and our little postal clerks will take good care of you.  
Our post office has opened just in time for one of 
the busiest mailing holidays of the year. 
We sell stamps, envelopes, and cards. 
We also have boxes for shipping larger items.
We have a card writing center within the post 
office so our customers can create special valentines.
We are able to copy the names of our friends onto 
the envelopes before mailing the letters and it gives us 
great practice writing our best letters.
The mail carriers have been very busy filling their 
bags and delivering cards, letters, and packages. 
Boxes need to be sorted by size. 
To the untrained eye, this dramatic play 
setting simply looks like fun child's play.
That is exactly what it is, but during play is when 
children learn the most authentically.
Play helps to develop creativity, self-regulation and 
negotiation skills, as well as an abundance of 
literacy and numeracy skills.
It allows opportunities for problem creation and problem solution and is a perfect way to nurture social and emotional growth.  
It is a necessity for the development of the whole child!!
