Tell us about your favorite childhood stuffed animal/toy. Do you still have it?

I still have the little teddy bear that was given to me the day I was born, and the best part is that it barely looks worn.

 

My favorite stuffed animal was Snuggles....I took him EVERYWHERE.

My cabbage patch doll.  Her name is Meggie, and yes I still have her!

My great aunt made me a blanket when I was born, and I also got a Koala bear at the hospital.  I still have both and they both look beat up and have holes.  I put them in a drawer in our guest room, so people don't have to see it. 

I should just toss them

Sadly most of my stuffed animals scared me at night and I would put them in a drawer in our dining room cabinet. I did the same thing with my cabbage patch dolls and barbies too.

I did play barbies I think longer than most little girls (but I will admit their lives pretty much mirrored soap operas).

It was a white stuffed animal I named Snowflake. I held him around his neck under the crook of my arm so much that he had to have his head sewn back on a few times by my mom! We call it "having surgery". I ::think:: I still have him... makes me want to go look!

I don't know if you guys would remember Dozy, the talking doll that you would put cassettes in his back and his lips would light up and tell you stories. He had a huge hard head with light blue pj's....I loved that thing....I still have it! It's in my basement!!!!

I still have the blanket my mom received as a present before I was born.  I still sleep with it.  Ryan calls him Rags.  His name is Blankey.

I don't remember Dozy, but I had Crickett!  Basically the same thing.  We just sold Crickett in our garage sale this year.  I opened her box to make sure she was in there before the lady took her home, and I got really confused.  When I looked in the box, it looked like she was covered with something.  I pulled her out and she was covered in a light colored pillowcase and had something tied around her neck.  I think she was supposed to be a ghost....  LOL!

Never heard of him, but he sounds a lot like Teddy Ruxpin.

I had a blanket that I had to take EVERYWHERE!! I still have it up in my closet, although there's barely anything left of it. I didn't really get attached to any stuffed animals.

Puffy the puffalump.  He is a bear.  Yes I have him and sleep with him on occasion still  (when DH is gone or I am sick).

My Winnie the Pooh that my great-grandmother hand made for me.  When I was little I loved Winnie the Pooh and I am old enough that his stuff wasn't so commonly found when I was little. So my great-grandmother sewed one for me.  I love that thing and I still have it.  His nose is a little chewed off, but otherwise he is in great shape.

Strawberry Shortcake doll. Had her since I was a baby and slept with her every night til college. By the time I was done with her, her face was worn off, her legs were pinned on and everything was torn... I got offended when people called her Raggedy Ann... She's raggedy Strawberry Shortcake! Yes, I think I still have the pieces in the closet at my parents' house... just couldn't bear to throw her away.

I had a grey pound purry that I named Flowers ... I still have her, and the little baby pound purry that was grey striped that I called her daughter, and named Daisy.

I had a pound puppie that I slept with for YEARS.  the floppy ears had stains on them because any time I cried, I used the ears to wipe my eyes.  I had this until I was 20, and then it was burned in an apartment fire.  I am still sad about this.

I have a dozzzy doll too!! And he lives in my basement. He's missing an arm now but I still have the tape that went with him. He was really creepy! Had a Barney-esque voice and the other side of the tape, he told stories. I think Jack and the beanstalk and Hansel and Gretel. I loved him so much!! He looks rough now but I could never part with him!!
