Perhaps your child is going to the optometrist soon, and you want to help them get used to the way the appointment will work. Or, maybe your kid just loves going to see the eye doctor, and dreams of becoming an optometrist some day!
No matter the case, if you’re looking to set up an optometrist dramatic play station, I have just the thing for you.
I first came up with this idea while planning our five senses homeschool unit. I like to add a dramatic play station to most of our themes when I can, and I was feeling stuck on what to do for this one.
After some searching on Pinterest, I saw a ton of doctor dramatic play, which got the gears turning. It made sense, after all. It would get my son talking about his body parts, which ties into the five senses.
However, I remembered that I have a human body theme coming up soon, and decided to save the doctor dramatic play idea for that unit.
After some more digging, I found the one! Optometry!
I ordered this affordable doctor jacket set on Amazon, and it was perfect. Maybe not perfect, but it worked! It also came with a stethoscope, which my son insisted on keeping with the optometry set.
