Olivia has now built up a little gang of friends who she sees regularly at play groups. The others are slightly older than her but they play very nicely together. She enjoys playing with older children and is very at home playing with her cousins but I have found the socialisation at play groups useful because unlike her cousins who give in to her if she throws a strop, other kids of two or three will argue with her over a toy and so she has had to learn valuable lessons about sharing and taking turns. Here are Olivia and her chums C_ and E_ enjoying fun on the see saw (or teeter-totter for our American readers).

Really...I guess I'm not as Dutch as I thought; I call it a see saw, as does Mama. I do draw the line at clotted cream, however.
