Driving Car to Shops

by Tracey
(England)

My 2 year old son loves for us to sit on the settee or two dining chairs put together, and we pretend to go to the shops.

1st we open the door then get in, put on SEAT BELT, then we make car sounds with bibbing the hooter.

We play drive to the shop, when we get out we pretend to cross the road looking left and right, ROAD SAFETY, when in the shop we decide what we're going to buy and he will get it for me off the shelfs.

Then we pay the shop keeper COUNTING pennies, then use MANNERS please and thank you, goodbye, then cross the road back to car and repeat roleplay back on the journey home.

Great for safety skills and vocabulary.
