imaginative play
This is the centre of Amelias play world. If it isnt playmobil, its the dolls house, and if it isnt that its dressup (Cindarella and pirates being the favourite) or shops. Today she said "Mum, can we play waitresses?" I asked her if she had played it in school and she said "No, I saw it on Ratatouille and I thought "hmmmmmm, that looks like a fun game to play one day!" So I was the customer and she was the waitrss. Miracle of miracles, she played it in Spanish...she got into it so much, "Its going to be a little while" she said about the soup, and then she said to me as an aside "All the cookers try the soup first dont they Mum?" (tries soup) "Hmmm, it needs a little more salt I think" (adds salt) "Now its PERFECT!"
