hey it was gr8!

It was just so quiet/peaceful/industriuos these little kids are - so independent and confident

Everything in the room is in miniature - tiny chairs, tables, all the activities at their level, mini bathroom with mini toilet and sink....and all these activities for various developments like language, spacial etc etc - and it was SO peaceful - u would love it. Nothing like a playgroup. All the kids are so industrious and quiet - conecntrating on their activities. There's no screaming/running around at all :) And they even serve themselves their own morning tea - I was amazed at the little tiny children getting themselves a placemat, a napkin, using a tiny set of tongs to dish up their own fruit, carrying their own plate to the table, pouring themselves a glass of water. SO cilvilased - then they WASH UP at a tiny sink! (whcih they really enjyo)
