It kept me busy for hours but I suspect young girls nowadays would not get the same amount of enjoyment from something so simple. I tried on some clothes in charity shops this week for fun.Elderberry-Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14197689596360708239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-65043864698287534812012-05-24T22:56:50.459+01:002012-05-24T22:56:50.459+01:00I remember having paper dolls like these.I remember having paper dolls like these.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550310970017380615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-7209911388375778712012-05-24T21:46:33.440+01:002012-05-24T21:46:33.440+01:00Oh my word I remember these.

Kids at school still love this type of activity I'm pleased to say. I also often join in and make my own in class, the children seem to appreciate it. I love to read Tracing Rainbows even though I am not talented in crafting or cooking.

It's truly the only advert that makes me want to buy!<br /><br />I think that Mr Anon (I am hazarding a reasonable guess to his gender) is a bit put-out about your campaign against bad punctuation. It's a good British hobby, indulged in by any number of responsable adults, Lynn Truss first amongst them!

I read voraciously but I also spent countless hours designing dresses for my collection of paper dolls. I can remember using bits from sweet wrappers as trims and begging scraps of lace from anybody who might give me some. You have brought back so many memories today.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16855403299773356566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-86543622644212978952012-05-24T08:26:15.494+01:002012-05-24T08:26:15.494+01:00I used to love the paper dolls, so much fun mixing...I used to love the paper dolls, so much fun mixing and matching, and I still love cutting and colouring. When I was a playworker at Breakfast Club , my colleague and I regularly joined in with the colouring activities, and I still enjoy cutting and sticking - wallpaper onto drawers to pretty them up etc. Scarlet - aged 47 years and 3 months. xScarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.com
