Hello Toys on Hive Community.
When I was a child I dreamed of having many toys, I could make an endless list of everything I wanted to have, but I am only going to name a few, for example I always wanted to have a doll that had real hair, I would have liked to do her hair, put bows, tails, dress her up and more. But the truth is that I did not have that joy; the only doll I had and I remember with great affection was made of a resistant plastic that did not move at all, it did not even move its arms so it was difficult for me to put clothes on it.
I remember that when I was a child my mother used to visit a friend "Mrs. Lucrecia" and she had two grandchildren, Franklin and Karoline, they lived in the country because their mother could not take care of them in the city, so to make up for her absence she sent them the best toys that existed in the market; when I went there I was the happiest girl in the world, I did not know which toy to start with, if hers or his. They had a car where you could ride and with the pedals you could go long distances; the closest thing we could build at home were some carts made with wooden planks and car windmills.
As a child my mother always told us, _Do the letter to the baby Jesus. And we would run out to write and leave them in the manger, I always asked for the same thing, a doll with hair that could move and I also asked for a lego, but that never came.
Later in 1980, a family with 7 children, all the same age as my siblings and me, moved near my house. With them we had a great time, we went to school, we did homework and then we went to play.
The girls always played dolls or the little house, we made pretend food, we had a space at the back of the house where only we entered, there we sent sardine cans that served as pots, we had butter lids that served as plates and we had magazines, wallets, chairs, everything to play as if it were real.
This is where my first dream was born today, "If I had money", I am sure that without a second thought I would have the most beautiful tree house you have ever seen built. With beautiful colors on its wooden walls, flowers in the windows, with stairs to climb up and a slide to go down. There would be beautiful shelves to put children's story books on, we would have a kitchen area with real plates and glasses. A beautiful table with little yellow chairs, I would also have many board games, because when there is money no one cares and I would only be busy being happy and making happy those who come into my house.
But in this tree house we can also make parties and invite the children, with them we could celebrate a birthday, carnival, Halloween, children's day and more.
Childhood is the most beautiful time of every child and how wonderful it is to live it to the fullest with good friends, because then we grow up and everything is just memories.
When we grow up and our children come along it's another thing, in my case I wanted to give them everything I could, sometimes I manipulated them to ask the baby Jesus for what I wanted, but this time, they got what they asked for! There is no greater happiness than to see the children when they uncover their gifts and immediately start playing.
So for them I would build them another tree house so they can really enjoy the fun with their friends and get them away from so many computer games, video games, cell phones and everything that technology has invented to keep them like zombies glued to a screen for hours.
My dream tree house.
As you may have read in some of my writings I am from the countryside and although I now live in the city I am not used to the accelerated life we lead daily in this concrete jungle.
That's why I want to raise my imagination and imagine that I have a lot of money and with it I can do whatever I want and buy something we have for me and that generates a lot of fun, So, what if I also send me to build a tree house!!!. I would love to be able to build a house made to my specifications and feel again the wonderful sensation of being up in a tree, feel the contact with nature, live an adventure and have a great time.
Contact with nature, live the adventure of exploring among the branches and be away from the world for a while. Perhaps many do not yet perceive the benefits of having such a gift in our lives, but staying in nature brings us physical and mental health.
Can you imagine something like that? Wow!!!! Just thinking about it, I want to see myself there, sitting among nature, promoting ecology and outdoor recreation; having a nice cup of coffee with my husband, reading a good book next to the balcony, decorating with beautiful flowers of all colors, and at night watching the stars while drinking a nice glass of wine with my LOVE.
For some time I have been watching a TV show on Discovery-Max called "My tree house", where the American Pete Nelson leads a team that builds the most spectacular tree houses. So to fulfill my dream I am going to hire him to come to Venezuela and together we will look for the right place to build my special house.
Well friends, never stop dreaming, our childhood is the most beautiful thing we live in this world, so I invite you to participate in this magnificent OCD Community Boost Contest #2: Highlighting Toys on Hive. organized by the OCD community in support of the Toys on Hive Community.
