Pretend Play - A Sandwich Shop in Kinder!

We love, love, love all of these pretend play ideas from of Growing in PreK, but our favorite is most definitely the sandwich shop! {Isn't it just adorable?!} Set up to mimic the ordering and preparation style of a Subway or Chipotle restaurant, we love that students practice interacting with their fellow classmates - asking the appropriate questions and following directions - to fulfill their customer's order!
