I think it's great to let them find ways to invent play for themselves. I forget sometimes. We have, however, had quite a few lovely picnics with the little tea sets. My oldest loves wordfinds. I've never thought of getting him to make his own. Actually, that would be a fun way to practice his spelling words. @Carol - I'm sure I used to drive mum bonkers throwing the ball against the outside wall of our kitchen. It seems like I used to play sevens all afternoon some days :-) @PlanningQueen – Aren’t kids’ imaginations just wonderful. I think it’s great to let them find ways to invent play for themselves.
