Role play

Ryanne is really playing with pretend play and role playing.

The other night, she was in bed and we heard her discussing things with her "monster". She had been telling Chrys about the baby monster that lived under her bed while they bathed. She was calling it, "come here, baby," and telling it hello. She chattered away about it for some time.

She's also playing with role play. Last night she was Daddy and Daddy was Ryanne from dinner to bedtime. It got confusing. It was interesting to her her interpretations of things. When Chrys took Corin up for a bath, she asked "can I keep you guys company?" When she plays Mommy, she says no a lot - hmph. It's really cool to see yourself through another's eyes, though.
