Dolls, more outfits than we probably own as a family, pink, colour, boots, cars, a house with the essential car, caravan, horsebox and trailer....
loads of Barbie doll playsets live here in our home
my daughter has boxes full of Barbie items....
and every time I ask her (somewhat hopefully) if she would like to "donate" anything to a home other than ours, the answer is always in the negative!
Truthfully, I quite like the fact that even if she doesn't really play with Barbie and all her paraphernalia anymore, she still likes to have it around - and maybe one day her own daughter may take it out and play with it all.
She loves her Sylvanian Family items too and I have noticed that when her younger brother borrows them to play with, she will often quite happily join in.
Some things are hard to let go of I guess....
Dolls come and go....Tiny Tears, Polly Pocket, Monster High Dolls at Argos ....but Barbie with her extensive wardrobe and outfit for every conceivable occasion and her lifestyle and standard of living that one can only aspire to remains the one to beat ;)
