Starting from primary school, the use of creative drama has become an important component of our education program as a support for other subjects and it is becoming more widespread. The earlier the children start creative drama, the more positive the influence is since  it is an important tool for encouraging students to be modern, creative and democratic individuals.

What makes drama interesting is the variety in it and the language used i.e. imitating and acting through a long-term process components of which are warm-up, relaxation, role-playing, pandomime, improvisation, role-development and evaluation.
