As a little girl i was a huge barbie fan, and i used to believe that if i treated them well enough (especially my fav one) that they would come to life and i would have my very own barbie best friend.

When I was a kid, I used to believe that all my cuddly toys were really alive. I thought that when I was playing with them, they were just pretending to be toys and that as soon as I left the room they would all spring to life. I used to try and catch them out by leaving the room, and then sneaking back in, thinking I would catch them all having a party or something. Needless to say, it never worked...

when I was in third grade I saw this show on TV about this boy that had a teddy bear and when he packed away when he was older it came alive and burned his house down as revenge. this was supposedly true, and me, being young and niave, thought that would happen to me. so I always gave all my stuff animals more pillows than i had at night, and never insulted them....hey I talked to them too!

i used to have numerous amounts of teddies at the end of my bed. At night i would give each and every one a kiss because i didn't want any of them to feel left out or that any of them were my favourite

When I was little my mother had me and my sisters believe that play do was illegal in Rhode Island, which is my hometown. So we never bought it.

See, when I was younger, I had this Talk With Me Barbie doll with a CDROM. I read the manual and precautions, and I mis-read and thought you couldn't touch Barbie's jewel. I had bad dreams for months about me touching the jewel and this weird color combination occurring and Barbie blowing up. O.o

I saw this commercial for binders. In the commercial the binder woukd open and everything in the world would get sucked in it. My mom bought one for me but I wouldn't open it.

If only i knew

when i was little, like all kids, i beleved my toys were real and that i could catch them in the act. I would stand outside my door and stump on the floor (i was running downstairs, haha) then i would fling the door open and see they hadn't moved and then i thought they were just cautious. I also would blow a kiss to one at night and then keep blowing kisses till i fell asleep, so that every stuffed animal got a kiss. Yeah, i was sad, but i had so many friends (refering of course to the animals)

From watching Toy Story 2, I used to believe toys were alive, and running around my room when I wasn't around. So, when I was 5 or whatever, I'd go out of my room, and open the door alittle bit and see if my toys were doing anything...they were just sitting there.

when i was younger my mum bought me a teddy clown that had a tear drop coming from its eye and i always thought it was freaky and it was kept on a shelf opposite my bed. one night my parents let me watch poltergeist and the clown was just like mine. after watching this i got my clown by the head and smashed it repeatedly face first into my bed posts to make sure it was dead.

I used to believe "cleaning" ment to put your toys and clothes in the garbage can. Would avoid "cleaning" at all costs, but when I had to, I carefully stack the least wanted toys and clothes into the garbage can, "hiding" the stuff I didn't want "cleaned". Needless to say I threw away a lot of my toys and clothes.

When I was little I was always afraid that our house would be on fire, and that my toys would burn inside the house. So for a period I had all my toys in boxes by the door so that if the house started burning I could just grab them on my way out. This never happened, however, so after some time I put the toys back into my room.

when i was youger i used to believe that teddies protected you from evil things and that if you didnt treat them good they wouldnt protect you

When I was about 6 or 7 I had one of those dolls that if you lift its arm, its hair grew. Well from that doll, I convinced myself that if I cut my pound purries whiskers that they would grow back, because the hair did on that doll. I cut its whiskers, and when I was done reality hit. I was devestated...I couldn't believe what I did to my pound purrie. I even told the stuffed cat that her whiskers would grow back...it took a lot of convincing of the cat to cut her whiskers in the first place.

When I was a child, 5-7 age, I HAD to turn all the heads around on my dolls,at night, as I thought they 'watched' me as I slept.
They actually frightened me, and I had no scary movies to varify that.
Never was crazy about dolls

ugggscaredofdolls

I used to believe my stuffed aninimals were paralyzed by my presence so I would hide in the closet and then pop out suddenly hoping to catch them moving.

Rozalyn

when i was little i thought that toys had parties wee little partys when you would leave home

I used to beleive that barbies were aliens......... I was very afraid of them and always treated my barbies with respect.

After watching the "Rudolph" Christmas special when I was 5 or 6, I developed a firm belief that if I wasn't nice enough to my toys, that the lion from the show would fly into my room while I wasn't in it, and take my toys to the Island of Misfit Toys. I kept a close inventory on them from that day on.

Angela

I used to believe my toys were jealous of each other, so I had to be nice to them all, and say good-night to them each, like a parent.
