do you have from your childhood, or even items that you didn't have but because of your inner child you have them?

I have several stuffies

I have a drinking bottle, which I call my baby bottle even though it's actually not a baby bottle, it's just for my inner child

and I got some elf ears I wear on my head and pretend I am a christmas elf

I have 3/4 dvds of the tv series peppa pig

my biscuit tin is known as my bickie tin

.... and you

I've mentioned all of what I have / do previously. But since I like replying to posts on this subject I'll mention them again. I don't have anything left from my childhood unfortunately. (It was a very long time ago.) When our beloved Schnoodle passed back in July, I saved most of his plush animal toys & placed them on our book shelves. I use baby lotion & baby powder every day. And I subscribe to a number of children's music YouTube channels & have pictures of teddy bears in places on my computer such as my lock screen and background. There are more things I wish I could do. But I can't given my living situation. Thanks for asking!

I have a tiny - 1" tall - doll with a tiny red dress and long orange hair. She has a teeny-tiny wreath of flowers on her head. My sister bought her for me when I was 4, so that tiny doll is 53 years old.

I was completely attached to my baby blanket. I couldn’t go to bed without it. I didn’t go to sleepovers as an older child due to embarrassment. In fact, one time I did, and we slept in sleeping bags and I kept my blanket hidden inside. I slept with the blanket until I got married at 27. I thought it was just too bizarre for a married, grown woman to continue to do. My h said he didn’t care if I continued, but I didn’t except for rarely when especially insecure. I still have it, of course. I’m afraid it’ll disintegrate after all these years!

I managed to rescue a little angel christmas ornament and an antique Bristol glass vase from my bedroom during our house sale where I watched 800 random people ransack our belongings.

I also have an antique cherry wood hutch. It was my grandmother’s. She died before I was born. My mother was able to get it from my grandfather and his new wife, rescued it from their garage where they were keeping oily rags in it. It was put in my bedroom from when I was a baby. It moved with us to three homes. When I got married, I rescued it from my mother selling it- it got moved four more times before being in my house now. It is dear to me as it makes me feel close to the grandmother I never knew, and the elegance for which she was known that I strived to be...but am probably quite far from.

I have a plastic santa from my childhood.
Now we have a lot of stuffies ... - a lot. We have lots of slime and other sensory toys that our young alters play with. We also buy a certain brand of unicorn ice cream and unicorn popcorn bars that one particular traumatized child alter likes.

their's more stuff, I think, that I wish I'd held on to

one thing I particuarly miss is my amazing amy doll

sure she was annoying, but she was also great and acted just like a real baby. I wish I hadon't broken her... I loved that doll

and I wish I still had my teddy-ruxpin

another toy that met an unfortunate end.. I think he ended up just warn out I used him so much.

hmmm and my video with nursery rymes on it. I remember as a little gal it was the only thing that would make me stop crying

I also have a doll that was the ornament on the box of chocolates my father brought my mother in the hospital when I was born. She saved it. It was always in my bedroom. I saved it. My father told her it looked like me.

I still have my baby blanket that while I don't use to sleep, it does get used for other purposes. I also have two stuffed animals.

My brother and I saved some of our childhood stuffed toys. Well they were passed on to the kids but the kids really didn’t play with them as they are of a different quality.

So I I kept an elephant and a squirrel and he has a fox and I think a bear. We also kept some children books. Each of us have maybe 2-3. And I have my moms childhood book. It is a collection of Korean folk stories published in 1940s. It’s falling apart.

So we do have some stuff and we are in our 50s and have grown children
