My World Tuesday: Doctors' waiting room



http://showyourworld.blogspot.com/
In a Doctors' waiting room in Three Kings, Auckland New Zealand. children do not feel bored because they have this play house to while away the time. Sometimes, children even play with other children as though they are old friends. I wish there were such play houses when my kids were young.

That's a great idea! In our doctor's waiting room there is a table with toys and books for children. It helps children to relax. But a toy house is even better!

Some doctors don't have a toy/play corner because it is a good way to spread germs.
At first I thought they must be little people to fit into that little pink waiting room.
In answer to your comment: I have been to NZ for 2 holidays. It is a beautiful country and the people are very hospitable.

nice to make a doctors office a fun place.

yesterday I met a young girl and we spoke of her dream to go to NZ some day. I told her I felt the islands were a mix of the wild Big Sur coast of California, Hawaii and Montana and Canada put together. Fun that you looked at my landscape photos from my hike Sunday and thought of NZ yourself.

Is this the pediatrician's office, or a doctor for adults? Gosh, with a set-up loke this, kids will be wanting to get sick so they can go to the doctor!

They better disinfect the playhouse regularly! lol

Nowadays no one play kites with sharp string like we used to, no more challenging each other. Just playing for fun. At Marina Barrage ,we have kites flying even in the dark!
