Playing vets

Today at the nursery I set up a role play area for the children to pretend to be at the vets surgery. There was a reception area and everyone had to check in and make appointments first. The receptionist would then send them to wait in the waiting area where they would sit very quietly waiting until their name is called to see the vet with whatever stuffed animal they found around the nursery. We even had a large toy caterpillar who needed to see the vet. All went well and everyone was having fun until one got hurt and before the child could start crying I said "Go to the vet he'll make you better." To which the 'vet' replied in panic, "But I'm only a vet!"
