Should I encourage my children to use their imagination or do pretend play? Pretend play stimulates children's imagination to connect spoken and written language, which later helps children read, problem solve, develop empathy, and build social, emotional, and cognitive skills. Also, pretend play helps children develop self-control, improve concentration, and cope with stress. In this short story Wynter Skye and Summer Rayne pretend play is the central theme. Wynter Skye uses her imagination to pretend that she and her best friend, Summer Rayne, are different characters or professionals. She draws the audience in by pretending to be an artist, pilot, doctor, dentist, ballerina, basketball player, and so much more.
