Role-playing involves children taking on roles and acting out scenarios, whether alone or with peers. This can range from setting a table to pretending to be a doctor or even a superhero. Such imaginative play is not only fun but foundational to a child's cognitive and emotional development. As Albert Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge, for knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world."
