8/24 toybox

8/24:
topic given- a potato, literally, and 'think outside the box'

Monopoly. Chutes and Ladders. The Game of Life. Bop It. Hungry Hungry Hippos. Four Square. Every kid has their favorite- the one game they could play over and over again and never get sick of; the one top they couldn't imagine living without. Mr. Potato Head. He was mine. Sure, sometimes he only had one ear, or a foot coming out of his eye socket, but he never left my side. More people should look upu to Mr. Potato Head. He was completely comfortable no matter what you made him look like. No torso? No problem. He was perfect when I got him for my fifth birthday- pristine. He has since lost an arm, and his color has slightly faded. But he'll still put on a smile... when you put a smile on him. We can all learn something from my dear friend, Mr. Potato Head.
