Preschool Harvest Market Dramatic Play Setup and Play Guide

Set up a pretend harvest market with this 26-page educator guide and printable materials, including food cards, price tags, shopping lists, role cards, and market signs. Preschoolers practice naming and sorting familiar produce, counting items, and exploring buying and selling through make-believe play. Children can take turns as shoppers and market workers while using conversation to share ideas and solve simple play problems. Use it to launch a seasonal dramatic-play center, or adapt the setup and prompts to your classroom space and available materials.
