Lots of the boys and girls in the nursery have been busy pretending to go to the shops and buy their shopping during their play in the house corner.

We thought it might be a good idea to invite some visitors in to learn more about our local shops and factories.

This week we had three special visitors who came to see us.

Doreen came to visit us from the butcher shop.

She brought different sausages to show us. 

We all enjoyed the sausages with beans for our snack!Thank you Doreen!

She also showed us what she wears in the butcher. 

She wears a butchers apron and a hat. Lots of us had good fun trying on the aprons and hats.

Archie's mum came to visit from our local bakery called Argos too.

They showed us the hair nets that they need to wear in the factory. 

We enjoyed trying these on too.

They had brought us a very special treat too!

We all got to pick an iced doughnut to put in a bag to take home. 

Yum!

After our visitors left, a new supermarket opened in Stromness!

We have had great fun investigating how the till works and the pennies in the drawer.

Lots of us have been wearing the hats, hair nets and aprons while playing in the shop.

We have loved filling up our trollies and baskets with all of the goodies on our shopping lists!

Friday was a really windy day so we decided to make some wind streamers and have some imaginative fun outside!

We had great fun.

We enjoyed stretching up high and stretching down low with our streamers.

Lots of us made big circle shapes with the streamers.

 Some of us enjoyed running with two

streamers!

We can't wait for the next windy day to play with them again!
