Everyday skills, in a town you can walk around

A small 3D town of 18 places. Children walk in, choose an activity at a counter, a table or a board, and practice the everyday: shopping lists, recipes, timetables, budgets with pretend coins. Every place is written for five age bands, Preschool to Grade 8, and nothing is timed.
