First of all "Hail To all the Sporty Ladies" who I noticed exercising at the Avenues then having a hearty breakfast at Dean & Deluca!!! I had a meeting at the Avenues and decided to take Ahmed with me. I dropped him off at Baroue and was browsing through the toys when I found Playmobils! I mentioned them in previous posts. They are amazing toys for kids with huge imagination! My boys would sit for hours playing with them. I can hear them making up stories and sound effects as they play and it makes me wonder what is going on in their little heads.
I usually ask my siblings when they are in France to buy them for the kids or I'd order them from Amazon France. Now they are available at Baroue, although a bit pricy but worth it.
You won't imagine the love i have for playmobile ... we used to call them Lego growing up...
ReplyDeletei remember Eid il Feter in the one year it was in london... 1990... our grandfather had just given us our eidiya's and what do i do? i say i must must go out... i walk all alone all the way to Woolworths on Edgeware Road... march more like it... and buy all the Playmobiles i could buy with my eidiya... i still have them with me
My 10th birthdy gift from my father was a red playmobile car... still have it
Mom promised us gifts... whatever we wanted, if Kuwait was freed in 1990... i asked for a playmobile ambulance... which reminds me i must ask my mom why she never got around to buying it for me...
o my biggest dream was the house! I had almost all the rooms of the pink oldies playmobile collection...

Thanx for the memories :****
They are my favorite toys when I was a kid too;)
ReplyDeleteI remember one year my mom had to return back to Kuwait and we stayed with my Dad... every weekend we'd go for a movie then to the the toy store for a playmobile toy or a barbie! It was heaven until my mother came back and put a stop to it :( Kina ga9een 3ala obooy maskeen ;p
