The five developmental domains of play are physical‚ social/emotional‚ language and cognitive development. Play has enormous contribution and impact on all aforementioned domains.

The scene where I would place this play would be at the Paint Creek Gold Mine in Cabin Creek‚ West Virginia.

Play is the foundation for learning‚ because it nourishes every aspect of children’s development.

For my play critique I went to Sunnyslope High School to see their production of The Snow Queen. All in all the theme of this play can be seen as love. Gerda expresses about every single scene how she loves Kai and will do anything to get him back. This play sounded extremely well put on‚ and then I saw it and wasn’t impressed even slightly.
