“In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.”
..... Friedrich Nietzsche
(German classical Scholar, Philosopher and Critic of culture, 1844-1900.)
When I was a kid, I'd like to believe that toys do come alive at night while everyone is fast asleep. How I wished that I could see them move and talk and enter into world of the Tin Soldier, Ballerina, Golliwog, the Ginger Bread Man, etc and play with them.
What is/was your favourite toy?

My best companion during my childhood is the LEGO building blocks!^-^
ReplyDeleteYou read Enid Blyton too? yup...and dream of the Faraway Tree :D
ReplyDeleteAlice, my childhood best companion is a cardboard paper doll that I draw myself. I also draw and designed her clothes, handbags, boots and other accessories. I keep her pressed among the pages of my textbook.
ReplyDeleteSmall Kucing, Enid Blyton is my favourite author, until today. That was were I got to experience all the adventures in toyland and later about England's boarding school, castles, dungeons and secret tunnels.
I remembered playing with paper doll, so much fun! Last time we just need creativity, lots of discarded items were used as toys.
ReplyDeleteA toy display to charm and excite kids big and small!
