I jumped back to this thread to include "playing house" after something funny happened, and I see it's been done!

Well I just tried to show some kids yesterday how we used to play house as kids - I grabbed a few items and made a house, and showed where you could make a couple others, pick a doll/toy etc and then go visiting each other. I was with 3 girls, ages 8, 9 and 10. They looked at me like I was crazy, and these are not little trying-to-be-teen types. They just simply didn't get it!!! lol!!!
