Pretend Play Pillows

Little doctor.

Jimmy and Jane Play Doctor

'Young man, haven't you ever heard of the hippocratic oath?'

'For goodness sake, Harry. All the child wants to do is take out your appendix.'

I'm tired of playing doctor, so I'm sending you all off to see specialists!

'Blimey! She's good.'

'These are exquisite! You simply must give me your recipe.'

"We're playing doctor. Do you have any old magazines for our waiting room?"

'I'm not playing with Kevin anymore. He's suing me.'

Mom, you gotta raise my allowance. I can't afford my malpractice insurance!

"Because of your age, I'm going to recommend doing nothing."

Children playing divorcees

"It's been my lifelong ambition! For the last two weeks."

'Since the healthcare legislation became law, our Little MBA kit outsells our Little Doctor Kit by a hundred to one.'

Baldo eats mud cookies Gracie has made for Christmas.

A child pretending to be on tv in a busy street

'All of our Little Doctor medical kits are on sale. Since the Healthcare bill passed, sales of the kits have been poor.'

"Not there Daddy! You almost sat on my invisible friend Herman!"

'We have caller ID, too.'

"Mom gave us a parking ticket."

Imagination

"Tea parties are passé. I'm opening a craft brewery."

Playing Doctors.

'Sweetheart, Daddy can't come home right now... I'll take a look at your doll baby this evening and then probably schedule some tests.'

'Alix, there's nothing in there. It's just a plastic pool...'

"Broom! Broom!"

'No, I can't be the horse, you have to be the horse!'

'If we're playing mothers and fathers, don't just sit there, my dollshouse needs painting!'

"Dad, there's nothing good on TV. We're bored.

"The patient is ready for his injections, doctor."

"I think your problem is heartbeat-from-mouth syndrome."

"I'm playing "Explorer" and looking for the Elephant Cemetery: there should be really big bones there!"

"With this invention...I can finally go to a time where everyday nuisances have been completely eradicated!"

"I'm your doctor. Take these pills."

"So Dr. Gracie...how are your patients today?"
