Everyone Needs Playtime

In our hectic, modern lives, many of us focus so heavily on work and family commitments that we never seem to have time for pure fun. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we stopped playing.

When we carve out some leisure time, we’re more likely to zone out in front of the TV or computer than engage in fun, rejuvenating play like we did as children. But play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well.

There doesn’t need to be any point to the activity beyond having fun and enjoying yourself. By giving yourself permission to play with the joyful abandon of childhood, you can reap oodles of health benefits throughout life.

Another Arrival


She arrived on 2nd August, and as I already have a Hannah sculpt (with red center parted hair) I have renamed this little one Hope. 


She is another Gotz doll (Hannah Princess), who is 18 inches tall, with beautiful deep blue eyes and pretty mocha/pink lips.


Hope is my third Gotz doll with blonde hair, having previously purchased Kitty with green eyes and a left side part, and Emma with grey/brown eyes and a center part (no fringe).

This doll now completes my blonde Gotz collection.

    Hello Sandy,
    She is stunning. They are all beautiful, but I think she has the most lifelike features of the 3.
    Big hug,
    Giac

    She's adorable and you know, the more I look at her, the more she reminds me so much of a young version of Aurora from Sleeping Beauty. Especially in that outfit with the little crown.

      Thanks Alasse, I had never thought about her resembling anyone else. Must check out some Aurora photos. :)
