Playing House

What we used: 
Soft toys
Pictures of different rooms which are commonly found in a home 

We had a free magazine lying around the house with tons of pictures of homes and rooms and furniture. 

Since the magazine is an old one, I decided to cut out pictures and play house with my toddler. 

We used our living room space as it was easier to move around and form a U-shape of all the pictures. 

We constructed our 'home' by identifying which room or furniture goes where. 

If she's not familiar with a particular picture ie car porch, I'd tell her where it should go since our own house has a basement parking so she may not be familiar with a car porch.

It started with me placing one of her soft toys at the pool. 

A couple of minutes later, all her soft toys decided to lounge by the pool :D Yes, she organised them as such: 

We had role plays where if a soft toy wishes to get out of the pool, it has to shower and wear clothes first. 

So we had a picture of a bathroom and wardrobe full of clothes. 

The soft toys went their separate ways after the pool, leaving only one still in the pool:
1 was asleep in the bedroom 
1 was reading a book
1 was playing with the guitar
1 was on the piano
1 was outside in the garden
2 were in the kitchen preparing food

When food was ready, our toddler said "Everybody! Want to eat?" 

So they all trotted to the dining area from wherever they were initially. 

Including the 1 toy which was in the pool. 

When she saw this, she said "Hey, you haven't showered yet!" 

So she brought this toy to bathe and put on fresh clothes first.

Not long after, she was pretty much engrossed with the activity that she was at it for 2 hours or so. 

I left her to it. 

She had even included Princess Elsa in the picture who joined the soft toys in the house not long after. 

Owh, we also had to keep the fan at minimum speed so as to avoid the papers from flying off in every direction!
