Especially a boy….maybe he wants to give these to his girlfriend.
Collect dust
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!!
What is it? A dog?
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.
Feels like a warm day, just the day to carry around 2 huge stuffed animals!! 🙂
I won one once. My mom made me give it to childres hospital. My dad and I took it down. I felt so good after that.
Follow some home and see what they do with them. Make photographs of how they save, share, display them.
A lot of them end up in yard sales!
