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.

My New Dress (A Post by Ante)

Mummy made me a new dress and I think it's very pretty. I have new shoes too!

I also have a new tricycle, but I haven't learned how to ride it yet...I am a little scared.

This is my furry friend Rudolf, he helps Santa bring me presents at Christmas.

Mummy has ordered me some new hair, so I won't be bald for long. And I have new socks coming too, my mummy is very good to me.

She also told me I have a new big sister coming in a few months, I am so excited.

Happy Discovery

Little did I realise that Fairyland made an Ante in two different sizes until I went browsing today looking for a curly wig for my little Puki Fee Ante. I was overjoyed to find she also comes in a Little Fee size too!

Pink Sylph

Petite Ange

Both Pink Sylph and Petite Ange are Elf and come with the little pointy ears, but Pink Macron below does not, however, all of them have that same innocence about them that my Puki Fee Ante has.

Pink Macron

I have no idea where they get their names from, but PM looks more like Madam Pompadour to me.

Now comes the hard part . . . which one do I order? It will definitely have to be ONLY ONE as these tiny tots don't come cheap. Non of them are available complete, so I will have to decide on whether I want the elf ears or not, then choose a wig and clothing to suit the face-up selected.

EDIT: She's on order, without the elf ears!

And Then There Were Three

My little Puki Fee Ante arrived yesterday and she's just so sweet. I really love the expression on her face and I am so pleased she was available for immediate despatch. I don't think I could have waited months for another BJD to arrive.

Wasn't quite so happy with the wig though. I'm not sure whether I will keep this as it is, or pull the braids apart and restyle the hair, or just find another wig that suits her. Only time will tell, but whatever happens with her hair, she will remain with me...she has stolen my heart!
