Open Call – Playing With Toys
Visit Tupa's Treasures!
Christopher Tupa is compiling a book and needs your childhood memories. Designed as a collection of stories of toys in play, Playing With Toys is open to submissions from anyone who would like to share stories of their childhood. Click through for the details as well as some example stories; I plan to contribute something of my own to the book.
I want to capture these memories and share them with each other and with the kids of today. I love hearing about how someone made a Gi Joe base out of pillows and a cardboard box; or how someone else imagined his closet was a black hole and the SilverHawks went on missions to rescue his California Raisins figures. I think it would be neat to have these stories and to read about other adventures kids were having while I was having mine; plus the creativity of children is so dang inspiring.
