Toys

I am beginning to think that all toys are a conspiracy against parents. You buy these cute little dolls and then the nightmare begins. For example, the purple shoes gets lost and your child request that you spend all of your time helping her find it. Or you just get the doll dressed and your child decides that the tea party is over and now dolly needs to get ready to go to the ball. The outfits are such a pain to get on and off too. It takes awhile to change cloths. The last problem is the modesty issue. The dolls never have cloths on them. The kids can get the dresses off, but have a hard time getting another one back one and so the dolls are not clothed. I have considered spray painting some clothing on the dolls, but my kids might get upset. Maybe what the toys need are snap on cloths. No, not cloths with lots of snaps, they have those, but rather some that snap onto the doll very easy. Plus, when you have more than one child, you could easily get roped into dress up time forever. Perhaps I could stretch this a little by saying that it is teaching my daughters way too much about accessorizing. Really, you do not need to have that many cloths, shoes, and accessories. Then again maybe every child goes through this and some day I will remember searching high and low for that one shoe.
