Supporting language, imagination and social development through role play
Role play is a powerful part of Early Years provision. It supports children to develop language, social understanding, emotional expression, problem-solving and early literacy through meaningful, imaginative play.
This page brings together our full collection of role-play printable resources for EYFS settings, including real-life scenarios, story-based play, and imaginative dramatic play packs. Resources are designed to support both child-initiated play and adult-guided interaction within continuous provision.
Why role play matters
High-quality role play supports:
spoken language and vocabulary development
turn-taking, negotiation and social understanding
early writing and mark-making for purpose
understanding of the world and community roles
imaginative thinking and creativity
Our role-play resources are designed to be open-ended, allowing children to revisit scenarios, adapt roles, and deepen their play over time.
