The clean house thread and a book I am reading have me thinking. Just how many toys does a kid need? I am reading the Book "Confessions of a slacker mom" which is a hysterical, lol read. I so recommend it. In the beginning of the book she talks about all the toys our kids have. And all the toys, for the most part, we didn't have. We had imaginations. We played outside. We "made do" sometimes. My dd, who just turned 5 on Friday, has 3 toy boxes full of crapp. I mean, I bet I could throw them away and she wouldn't notice. She likes to play outside. Play computer games. Watch minimal tv. She still plays with her stacking cups that we took to China in 2006 to entertain her as a 9 month old.
So, how many toys do your kids have???
