DD loves pretend play and dressing up...
At two she would do 'double' pretend, that is, she would pretend being a chicken (from Chicken run) who was pretending to be Tarzan, or Marie (from the AristoCats) pretending to be Pluto....
She would take as well imaginary flowers or presents for me, or put imaginary CDs in one machine DH had that resembled a CD lector (sp?).
Now she plays with little figures or Little Ponys and it takes her more than half an hour to just make the set up. And then DS2 takes care of it in just a few seconds....
She likes as well to be told very complex and long stories where she, her friends, Harry Potter, Winx, Simba and Nala and Superman and who knows what else are mixed together.
I think she will enjoy the role games, I wonder if the kids version of Dragons and Dungeons would be a nice present for next Christmas. What do you think?
In general, her pretend play has always been a thousand times more elaborated and complex than that of most kids I have seen in real life, but when she plays with ND friends she reduces the complexity and adapts to the other child and the mom of her friend thinks I am exaggerating ....
