Construction Zone Dramatic Play Center
Things that I included in this Construction Zone Drama Center:
-
Toy tools (hammers, screwdrivers, screws, saws)
-
Toy construction hats and vests
-
Safety goggles
-
Variety of blocks
-
Safety cones
-
Measuring Tape
-
Golf Tees
-
Foam pieces or Cardboard boxes
-
Printable signs and labels
-
‘I Can Build’ cards

Before opening the center, I modeled how to use the golf tees and the child-sized hammers. I only allowed students to hammer the golf tees into the foam pieces or the cardboard boxes - not the blocks.
Students got to work very quickly and I found them making buildings with the blocks, measuring their structures and working together. They also did a lot of hand-eye coordination practice when they hit the ‘nail’ golf tee into the boxes! This center was so popular, we had to set a timer to take turns hammering!
