“Even if I had the money，there was simply no way of replacing those glasses.Along with not being able to see well，I experienced headaches every day，so my coworkers and I were much in prayer about this.Then your boxes arrived.When my staff removed the covers，they found a pair of glasses lying on the top.” After a long pause，he continued，“Folks，when I tried on the glasses，it was as though they had been custommade just for me！I want to thank you for being a part of that！”treaming down his face，an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.

As a parent you might never guess all the ways a good imagination benefits your child.It helps a preschooler：Develop social skills
As children play pretend，they explore relationships between family members，friends and coworkers and learn more about how people interact.Playing doctor，they imagine how physicians care for their patients.Playing house，they learn more about how parents feel about their children.Imaginative play helps develop sympathy for others.If children can imagine how it feels to be left out of a game or to lose a pet，they are better able to help those in need.They become more willing to play fair，to share，and to cooperate.
Build selfconfidence
Young children have very little control over their lives.Imagining oneself as a builder of skyscrapers or a superhero defending the planet is empowering to a child.It helps them develop confidence in their abilities and their potential.

Using the imagination is the beginning of abstract thought.Children who can see a king's castle in a mound of sand or a delicious dinner in a mud pie are learning to think symbolically.This skill is important in school where a child will have to learn that numerals symbolize groups of objects，letters symbolize sounds，and so on.
Practice language skills
Kids who play pretend with their friends do a lot of talking.This helps boost their vocabulary，improve sentence structure and enhance communication skills.
Work out fears
Playing pretend can help children work out their fears and worries.When children roleplay about the big，bad monster under the bed，they gain a sense of control over him and he doesn't seem quite so big or so bad.Imaginative play also helps kids let out confusing feelings they might have，such as anger toward a parent or，rivalry (竞争) with a new sibling (兄弟姐妹)． children have enjoyed reading the story of Peter Pan because Peter takes them on fascinating adventures.Reader's Digest Young Families offers a beautiful vintage Disney edition of Peter Pan，which is an iParenting Media Award winner.Click here to find out how you can get this classic story along with 2 free books—Bambi and Pinocchio.
