Pretend Play :: Wooden Camera’s

We pretend we know what we are doing when it comes to taking photos… both Piper and I, and of course we have a lot of fun with it!

Piper is at the age where she absorbs everything I say and do, she is a little sponge being molded into who she will eventually become as an adult. Three is such an impressionable age and I try my best to keep things interesting for her. Keeping imagination alive in a digital age is very important to me. Playing outside exploring the world around us helps nurture this growing mind.

Taking ‘pictures’ like mommy with her wooden camera on nature hikes and at local parks  has become a new favorite game of Piper’s. She loves to “be just like mommy”. I love watching her imitate me and creatively find the beauty in the details in our surroundings.

Fact + Fiction Toys help to bring out the imagination within our little ones. Their handcrafted organic wooden toys are made to top notch quality. On our outings Piper always runs to grab her Fact + Fiction wooden camera when she sees me with my camera. She’s my little mini me and I love every second she pretends to take pictures along side of me. Taking pictures, real or pretend, is a way to tell a story, I love that Piper is learning to pull pieces from the world and make her own voice heard.

“Say, Ice Cream! It’s way better tasting then cheese!” -Piper

I love this kid!
