The Midwife Game

My three-year-old and I recently spent an entire morning playing the “midwife” game. This involves variations of going for a check up (she calls it a “check out”), having the baby (laundry basket as birth tub, naked child, teddy bear as newborn) and getting married. She insists on getting married before having the baby, but I’m pretty sure the baby was conceived out of wedlock.
