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.

Two Weeks in Singapore

Whilst I was there I went to Magma Heritage, the most wonderful doll store where you can find an amazing array of dolls for adult collectors. If you are ever travelling to Singapore, I recommend you add this to your list of places to visit.

Super Star and Adonis dolls
Blythe and to the left Sindy dolls
Dolls on the top shelf belong to Margaret
Barbie, Momoko and J Dolls

The owners of the store Madison and his mother Margaret, made me very welcome and helped me find exactly what I was looking for. They are both avid doll collectors themselves and are happy for you to have a good look around and are interested in what dolls you collect yourself. 


Sweet Poodle Momoko: (Code: SGC21700 released 31st January, 2006)
Dressed up in what the Japanese like to call "Gothic Lolita", this Momoko doll has a pink poodle on her hand bag and comes with a doll stand to keep her safely on display!


Good Night Cherry: (Code: SGC21693 released 11th October, 2005)
Ready for bed, this sweet Momoko doll is dressed in a light nightgown, white bathrobe, cute nightcap and even white slippers trimmed in pink. And of course she carries her "cherry" pillow and comes with a doll stand.

These were both NRFB and as they both pose so well they really don't need their stands. They came in a hot pink (almost red) box with a clear see through panel with the Sekiguchi - PetWorks logo on the box.


The dolls were a little more expensive than their original release price, however, at 300SGD for both dolls (AU$330), they were much less than the prices asked for them on eBay and there was no postage to pay!

I'll share some more photos once I'm back in a routine at home and have caught up with all your blog posts.
