Tea Party (Kid's news 3 of 4)

We left Frances with her grandma some this weekend. While we were gone, she worked out how to have a tea party.

According to Grandma, Frances spread out a small blanket in the living room and set out a serving tray and some small cups on her own. Grandma asked her if she was having a picnic and if they should invite some friends. Together they gathered up a couple bears, a frog and doll.

Presumably they played with them but I'm going to skip to what I saw.

When we got back, Frances went over to the blanket with me and set up the bears that had fallen over and found the frog again. Then she set the cups in front of each one. With each guest she lifted their cup to their mouth so they could drink, then pretended to pick up something from the tray and put it in their mouths.

I was impressed. That was full on imagination.
