Shopping is such hard work!

Last week one day my preschool was canceled at the last minute because my friend Paxton hit his head on the wall and had to go to the hospital for four stitches. It happened right before we all arrived at his house, so it was too late to go to someone else's house. Mummy had been planning to run some errands on her own, but I got to go with her instead. She took me to the shopping mall.


If you are a boy and you don't love to go shopping, then you must not have been to Stonestown Mall recently. My favorite area is in the center of the mall. There is a projector on the ceiling that projects various games and advertising onto the floor. Mostly you jump on whatever appears and then that moves it to a different part of the "screen" and then you jump on it again....and again and again. Your mother sits on a nearby bench reading a magazine or making some phone calls and you just keep jumping and running after things moving on the floor. After a while she says that you have to visit two more stores and then you can play some more. It's actually good to take a bit of a break because you do get rather sweaty!


Notice how healthy my bright red cheeks look. Who knew shopping was such good exercise?
