I didn't play with paper dolls, but I had a blast with real ones. Kids are wonderfully creative. It's a lot more work now, but still fun!
I loved them, too, Diann. The Lennon Sisters, BTW, were MY sisters in the paper doll world!
I am such a visual person, I have to print out pictures of all my characters (in a variety of poses and moods - thanks StockExchange and istockphoto!) and their houses, pets, maps, even weapons. It helps me think. :-)
I seem to recall having paper dolls at one point in my childhood, but I didn't play with them very much. I'd rather be fishing.
I played with cars when I was a kid. Every car had a driver and every driver had a story, though I'm not sure what story justified me sending them over ramps and all the other stuff I did to them.
Diann, I loved paper dolls when I was a kid. I had all different kinds, but my favorites were children. I'd sit for hours making up stories for them to act out. Little did I know that was the beginning of my storytelling that goes on today in my novels. Thanks for the memory!
I loved paper dolls - and so did my sister! Our favorites were a set my mom had from the 1920s or 30s. Their outfits were very glamorous. Our stories (and back stories) were very elaborate.
I haven't thought about paper dolls for a long time. Thanks for the memory! :]
I LOVED paper dolls. As a kid, I bought some with my pocket money that were stars of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Actresses like Joan Crawford with all their beautiful gowns.
