Our first stop was at the General Store.
First she showed us some of the things that were sold in those days.
Then she showed us where things were in the shop and how to package them.
We were then given a basket and a shopping list and had to get everything on the shopping list - exactly. Here Layla and I are measuring the rice.
There was a lovely old piano in the shop and the lady said that Ruth could play on it.
This was a beautiful old organ - but unfortunately it did not work. Ruth enjoyed pretending though.
We had to wrap some of the things in paper. There was no plastic then.
Hannah found the old fashioned telephone booth outside.
