About This Book

The pamphlet explains how parents can nurture children's natural dramatic impulse through everyday play and organized activities rather than preparing them for the stage. It surveys forms of imaginative expression — early doll and make-believe play, serial and cooperative dramatizations, folk dancing, pantomime, tableaux, dramatized household tasks, storytelling, and festive parties — and offers practical guidance for adult participation, supervision, and group structures such as clubs and self-governance. Emphasis falls on cultivating expression, discipline, social manners, and aesthetic sensibility within the home and community settings.
