    Especially a boy….maybe he wants to give these to his girlfriend.

    We had a big one that Tom’s niece won for the kids at Idlewild Park a couple of summers ago. Not quite that big – but close. It hung around in the guest bedroom for a while. Can’t remember what finally became of it, though.
    We got a great picture of Mike with a giant stuffed bear (about his size) in front of a toy store in Breda in August! Funny!!
    The kids always like to play the fishing game at Idlewild and Kennywood – and they always get some little stuffed animal – part of the fun of being young!
    But I like the thought of a young boy giving the animal to his girlfriend!!

    Good mornng. My mother has amassed a collection of stuffed dolls and Teddy bears,close to 500 in all sizes. Her Annalee dolls were appraised at $15000 for our recent move and her Teddy bears were worth another $5k. I can tell first hand that what you do with them is constantly try to find a place to store them all!

    I never understood why people would want to win of these. Also who would want to care it around the park all day.

  9. Follow some home and see what they do with them. Make photographs of how they save, share, display them.
