playing hospital

ratchet = otoscope
Notice the patient's wristband (and outfit from Auntie Bev.)

Klippi cloth-to-bib-converter (from Kristin) + pipe cleaner = stethoscope

A couple of weeks ago, Adam took it upon himself to organise a session of playing hospital, effectively acting out a Curious George story. We've played quite a few time since then. John is always the patient. He, Naomi and I are doctors and nurses. The first time we played, he even scooted into the kids' room to copy John's name off the wall onto a sheet of paper because part of the story takes place in the admitting office, where a nurse writes down a lot of things about the patient. It might have been the tidiest thing I've ever seen Adam write.
