Playing shop

Little bear plays shop. Not the sort of shop that nice little girls play, but a shop where Ratatouille sells smoothies and gets attacked by the huge IKEA crocodile and insults the pandys for eating bamboo. It is a bit more energetic than I remember.

Yesterday he decided that he was going to make a place for Ratatouille's cousin(a small wooden mouse that bangs a drum) to sleep. One thing led to another.

The 'shop' is a valet stand that we were planning to get rid of. Now it has three 'bedrooms' attached which are cardboard boxes with cushions and cot blankets. There are also assorted toys. The whole of the study seemed to be overflowing with boxes and blankets and toys. If I remember there were three pandys, a bean bag pandy and a pandy rug (flat pandy). Then there was Ratatouille, the IKEA crocodile known as Blob, Big Tigger, Little Tigger, Superdog, Sally the Camel and Nessie - not forgetting the wooden mouse. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Favourite dishes from the 'shop' are a dinosaur and honey sandwich with falling down sauce and a cheese and tomato smoothie.
