Hi I am so shocked and upset I don't know what to think. We have always played shops with the kids and they venture off in the house to find something to buy/sell. I got home from work today and both me and my wife were playing with the kids and my daughter asks what do we need from the shop. I told her to surprise me. Her and her brother ventured off upstairs.
After about five minute we realised there wasn't the usual noise. My wife went to check and..... no kids.
I checked outside and they know never to go past the garden gate. I didn't believe it could happen but left my wife checking the house and went across to the local shop (no roads just a small car park) They were both in the shop with a basket. MY daughter had took a bag of pennies from her money box and they were putting a selection of things into a basket (Amazingly not just sweets)
I am so shocked and stunned they went out of the house let alone garden. We have had a stern chat with them and they understand but I have no idea why they would take it on themselves to do this when they know its wrong.
Anyone else had anything like this?
