I used to believe my stuffed animals had feelings and would cry whenever they accidently got sat on or my sisters would torment them

I spent every night and day with my My Buddy doll from the time I got him at age 4 until I was 10. After seeing The Velvetine Rabbit whe I was 5, I was convinced that My Buddy was real, and that he came alive when I wasn't looking. I would set booby traps and scotch tape on the doors when we left the house just to test, but when the traps would still be in place I deduced that Buddy was much cleverer than that! I knew I had a real pro on my hands. When I was about 7 I cut his hair, and days later when I noticed little hairs hanging down against his bare neck I was certain I had discovered his hair growing back in! It took 2 years of maturing before I could be convinced otherwise.

My sister and I had plastic play food and food, and we believed that if we sat around and repeadetly patted the food, it would get smaller, and smaller, and smaller. My mother must have been bewildered as to why her kids were sitting around hitting plastic pizzas.

When i was a young child... about 5 i guess, i had a talking robot, if you left it on for more than 10 minutes without playing with it a siren would go off, so that u could turn it off, that way your battery wouldnt go dead! the first time the siren went off, i thought the police were comming after me because i was wasting electricity???
so i turned it off, and didnt play with it again.

When i was about 5 and Toy Story had just come out in the cinemas, i had the pig toy that was from the film in a happy meal from mcdonalds. i used to put the pig in my room and when i went downstairs the pig would have moved to another part of my room as if coming to life like in the film! i thought this was actually happening and got really excited and then a few yrs later i found out my parents have moved it :P

When we were little, both me and my older sister had these blue stuffed-animal dinosaurs, and we used them as our own personal dream-catchers. We believed that they would eat any nightmares that came in so that they wouldn't go into our heads and become bad dreams, and with them around, we would only have nice dreams at night. I always made sure to bring mine everywhere I slept (like when visiting relatives), else I would have bad dreams.

My sister taught me a card game called "Spite And Malice". At the time I was unfamiliar with the words in its name. I played it for years without understanding its name, but thinking it was "Strike The Mouse", never understanding why it would be called that. Now that I know the real words in its name, I don't know why it would be called "Spite And Malice" either.

when I was small I thought toys felt neglected if you didn't play with them enough. I even had dreams of dolls who wept from neglect. I felt so guilty that I made it a point to go around my room before bed and put them all in a lying down position as if I were putting them to bed. This nightmare of the neglected dolls even haunted me into adulthood.
I wonder what it really means...

My little sister used to think that the manikins at the department store were "big barbies" and she wanted one for Christmas!

Every time I walk out of the room my Pony in My Pockets move out of my little pony house. Is this just a fluke or are they alive? My house is only 1yr.
old!!! None of my other toys move just my ponies. I do not share a room. My siblings deny touching them. Those toys moved in my room while my whole family was dining!!

I used to talk with my teddy bear and I really thought he answered me.

I used to believe every single one of my toys was a living breathing person. Made of solid freaking plastic :) I found out I was wrong when I tried to talk to one....and it just sat..there..staring through my soul like a deer in the headlights.

i swear my teddy bear is alive. i used tobe afraid of it and still am. because it said to not be afraid and it was my gaurdian.

I use to believe that when I went to bed, all my toy dolls would play at night and would jump back in the toy box before I got up in the morning!
I was convinced of this because I had a clown doll that sat on a box, and every morning he was tilted a little or just not in the exact position as when I went to bed...and I always checked him before I went to bed!

I used to believe that all of my stuffed animals were alive and would move around and talk about me when I wasn't there.

When I was little, I believed that my stuffed animals came alive when I left the room. So I always made sure that there were two of them together so they wouldn't be lonely. Too much watching Raggedy Ann I guess! Imagine my surprise when Toy Story came out and the toys came to life when the kids left the room!!

I used to believe that if I cut my dolls hair it would grow back just like mine did after a haircut.

I used to believe that my doll Kimberly was real and if I listened carefully, that I'd hear her speak!

I used to take my toy cars to bed with me and would wake up in the morning only to find that they were gone. I used to believe that they drove down to the bottom of my bed and disappeared. It was a few years before I found out that my mother kept finding them when making the bed and would put them back in my toy cupboard.

That if i didnt put all my teddy bears in bed with me, and cover them with the quilt they would all get cold in the night, and would would get me the next night. Needless to say i woke up most nights very hot.
