The room/shop/tearoom

The new room has now already become a shop and a tearoom, compared to her old room Rosa really has so much more room to play here, and she does!

I'm going to be honest here: there are many of these games that children want to play with you that can really bore me, but I have quite a soft spot for playing shop! You know, with 'real money' and lots of groceries and adding real price tags to the products and such... (maybe that's why I ended up 'playing shop' for a living ;)) Of course Rosa still is a bit too young for the real hardcore playing shop experience (with receipts and weighing the vegetables and stuff like that...), so I must keep myself from doing things like neurotically trying to keep all the strawberries in one little box and the bananas in the other ;). In fact it already surprises me quite a bit how precise she already is when it comes to pouring 'tea' in little cups, putting groceries in bags and using the cash register, I keep finding it amazing how fast play & understanding develop at her age.

I remember having this little play shop as a kid, back then I didn't have all those fun little groceries that today's play shops seem to have in abundance. So it's hard for me not to get overly excited when I see all those amazing wooden shops with matching groceries that you can buy today. This one is still my dream shop, though I must realize that for now Rosa is perfectly happy with the shop she already has, so buying a fancier one would be more of a gift for me than a gift for her ;).

Hm. Ik wil echt geen zwarte muur in mijn huis, maar stiekem wel, alleen voor de goeie foto's:)

I loved my shop too.... much more basic than this one.....but more than that I adored playing post office because I had a series of stamp pads, which somehow seemed to represent being grown-up. Oh how I loved to stamp anything and everything... paper, skin, the dogs, my brother....but I think I knew that the walls were a no-go. Rosa is so cute (and serious about her job!). What a lovely room for her to grow to the next stage in....the yellow cot is adorable and I'm sure it's had the personal nina touch in the painting department!
