This is an extraordinary school find; even the infants are working according to this, what you would call a school worksheet. It reveals the first stages of the world at work. Play is after all work as its doing stuff you may or may not want to do. Like cleaning the house. The kid might not like playing with Play-dough or going outside in the garden but it’s in the curriculum so you have to do it. At work you may not like having to attend those meetings but you have to do it to improve productivity etc. Learning to use the toilet is all too important when it comes to employment; there mustn’t be any soiling or wetting otherwise you’ll get the sack.

Alternatively they may well have given this to a friend and on a more cynical note may well put their friendship in jeopardy. This maybe because their friend hasn’t been able to arrange a holiday as extravagant as going abroad, either resorting to a cheap camp site somewhere in the UK or has spent their entire holidays at home or worse still at summer school as their parents/guardians go out to work and so never venturing further than the school playground. So just imagine for a minute some scenario around this one. I have to bitch at this point as girls are notorious for this sort of thing... Oh god is that’ s all you did all summer – Amelia you’re so dull. Oh S u zie, (another girl here who’s been on holiday like her) did you, OMG that’s just so ooo cool. Look at my pics – yea that’s me on the roller-coaster a t Disneyland P...
