Mail Delivery Dramatic Play: Preschool and K Engineering and Math

Mail Delivery Preschool Engineering

Challenge: we have these sticks we can use to build houses. What are the shapes used in your houses?

Challenge: this looks like a beautiful community of neighbors. What else do they need to live happily together? (Possible answers: a road, trees)

Challenge: how would a mail carrier find the correct house to deliver toys and flowers to? (Possible answer: A mail carrier would need an address.) Can you make addresses for these houses using this number cards?


Mail Delivery Preschool Math

During our pretend play, lots of different scenarios came up, of course. Pictured below:

The strong wind blew through the neighborhood (showing the wind with hands while picking up a couple of numbers, or mixing them up). Oh, no! What happened? The mail carrier will not be able to deliver mail! Can we fix it?


We set up a little post office at the end of the drive way. Supplies used: paper and a pencil, toys to be delivered, a truck designed to carry a driver, a package, and a piece of paper.

Math challenges: writing down numbers, counting up and down the number line when delivering mail.


After mail delivery set up was cleaned up, My Firefly wanted to draw a picture of the pretend neighborhood.

Math challenge:
  • Color the roof of the second house green,
  • color the roof of the forth house brown,
  • color the roof of the house after the forth one red,
  • color the roof of the house before the second one black,
  • color the roof of the house that is in between the second and the forth houses purple.


As someone might notice, we are falling in love with challenges here. The next ones planned (hopefully) is Banana Math.

  13. My undiagnosed mother with probable bipolar disorder is threatening to divorce my father https://onlinedivorcer.com/online-divorce-pa over absolute nonsense, and I cringe at what might happen to my poor father, who deserves nothing. I want to do everything in my power to help my father.

    Can testimony about my mother's bad actions when I was a child help? Twice she threatened to kill both me and my special needs brother when we were children. Now we are both adults and my brother, due to his condition, hardly speaks at all, so I am the only witness who can testify. Can my testimony on the record about these cases hurt her in a divorce proceeding?

  14. But think back: You were resigned to the email status quo. Weren’t you? I mean, what Yahoo and hotmail offered, embarrassing as it looks now, was good enough then. That’s the thing about technologies that become essential. You’re too busy to demand better. You just hit reply and hope.

  16. The activity continues to impress as you transition from play to drawing. Assigning specific colors to different houses' roofs adds a layer of pattern recognition and color identification to the mix. This multi-faceted approach to learning not only keeps your child engaged but also helps them grasp mathematical and creative concepts in an enjoyable way.
