When I was a child, I was upset with the Ken that I used to have, I don't know why, but because of that, I would have my barbies be lesbians. According to my mother, I always had a difficulty playing with my toys and would put them in shelves as if they were collectibles but I do remember making them scissor here an there 😭
I would play with my toys heaps but would refer to them as collectables or my ”collection”. Appreciate that you respected yours as objects that’s kind of rare
Yeah, my mother wasn't too pleased with that, since she thought I was wasting her money, but I'm glad I'm not alone on this lol. I just loved to admire them. They looked so pretty 🤎
And I would make them investigate murder mysteries at sea on one of their two cruise ships, go out into the wild (backyard) to have adventures, or film elaborate news broadcasts with them with my dad’s video camera. I also had approximately one million stuffed animals each of whom had a name and a story, and my grandfather liked to give me porcelain dolls.
I used to have a “littlest pet shop” YouTube channel and was curious about others relationship with toys. I still collect toys because I don’t think being an adult means you need to stop.
