Traditional toys are often considered to be non-electrical, made of materials like wood or other kinds of natural fibres, and frequently handmade. Dollhouses, Barbie sets, play kitchens or workstations, shops, garages, cars, railroads, shopping carts, and other items are common examples of classic toys. This kind of toy has long been a favourite among kids all around the world. However, because to the enormous growth in the production of electronic toys and gadgets, some homes have recently started to overlook traditional toys. Preschoolers play a lot, which should be seen as a brain-building activity rather than just something they do to kill time. It gives youngsters the much-needed happiness and excitement they require during their formative years while also helping them meet developmental milestones and enhancing their sense of self, creativity, and imagination. Here are some advantages of playing with toys: Read more: https://funwithgameforyou.blogspot.com/2022/11/what-are-advantages-of-playing-with.html

Feiern war noch nie sein Ding. Alkohol auch nicht. Christian mag Paartanz. Und hält sich lieber an Cola. Der zurückhaltende Mann, dessen Großvater während des Zweiten Weltkriegs ins Chinesen-Viertel auswanderte, ist zwar auf dem Kiez aufgewachsen, in einem Club war er jedoch nie. Dafür heute umso häufiger. Christian Fong (54) ist Büroleiter des Dollhouses und anderer Läden auf der Großen Freiheit. Er berichtet davon, wie er nach 24 Jahren als Bankangestellter auf einmal im Nachtclub landete. Von der „besonderen Kommunikation“ auf dem Kiez, an die er sich erst gewöhnen musste. Von seinem schlimmsten Gast – einem Hamburger „Partylöwen“. Von fummelnden Pärchen und Jogginghosenträgern. Von seinem Leben in einem chinesischen Dorf und seiner Ankunft als Fünfjähriger auf dem Kiez. Und von seinem Opa, von dessen Schicksal er nichts ahnte. Die MOPO-Reporter Wiebke Bromberg und Marius Röer trafen den leisen Nachtclub-Mitarbeiter im Dollhouse.

Do you suffer from anxiety disorder? Depression? Intrusive thoughts? Obsessive compulsive disorder? Voluntary hair pulling? Avoidant personality disorder? Any of the above? Well, Jenny Lawson suffers from all of the above. Tuberculosis too, according to her wonderful new book. It’s an overwhelming way to live and only partly cured by being a global community leader for mental health through her wonderful blog (TheBloggess.com), her millions of followers, and her indie bookshop Nowhere Bookshop down in San Antonio, Texas. Does Jenny Lawson do podcasts? Interviews? No, not really. She tells us at the beginning of the chat that she loves 3 Books so much that she wanted to come — lucky us, as 3 Bookers have been asking for this interview for years! — and she made herself cozy by calling me up from under her desk, in cozy clothes, post-beta-blockers, and with Hunter S. Tomcat providing animal therapy throughout. Jenny is funny, crass, smart, and openhearted. She’s struck a deep chord with her books Let’s Pretend This Never Happened, Furiously Happy, You Are Here, and Broken. (All, I should mention, with the wonderful Amy Einhorn who’s edited four of my books, too!) Jenny and I talk about what a good editor does, reading in the freezer, stealing Stephen King, dollhouse therapy, mental health toolkits, LSD, what your kids will actually remember about you as a parent, and of course, Jenny’s 3 most formative books. Jenny is gracious and disarmingly truthful and she doesn't want her pain to go to waste. She is a beaming voice the world needs more of and today I am just so privileged to help her do just that. Let’s flip the page into Chapter 76 … What You'll Learn: What does an editor do? How do you read horror books when you have anxiety? How do you open a bookshop? What is reading guilt? How can ketamine treat depression? How can we cultivate self care and self awareness if we have anxiety? What are intrusive thoughts? How does depression lie? What is a mental health toolkit? What is dollhouse therapy? How can we talk to our kids about mental illness? You can find show notes and more information by clicking here: https://www.3books.co/chapters/76  Leave us a voicemail.

S01E01: Mother of Forensic Science Frances Glessner Lee's Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death and Miyu Kojima's Miniature Replicas of Lonely Deaths. In this very first official episode of the Bones & Bobbins Podcast, Haley and Natali discuss Miyu Kojima and Frances Glessner Lee--two women, worlds and decades apart, who combined craft and death in their own amazing way. One would process death and create an act of public service for the living, the other would birth Forensic Science as we know it today. Show notes: https://www.bonesandbobbins.com/2020/05/22/season-1-episode-1/

In the 1940s, Frances Glessner Lee brought new rigor to crime scene analysis with a curiously quaint tool: She designed 20 miniature scenes of puzzling deaths and challenged her students to investigate them analytically. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death and their importance to modern investigations. We'll also appreciate an overlooked sled dog and puzzle over a shrunken state. Intro: In a lecture at Cornell, Vladimir Nabokov considered Gregor Samsa's new species. Siren Elise Wilhelmsen taught a clock to knit a scarf. Flickr and the Smithsonian American Art Museum have image galleries of Frances Glessner Lee's nutshell studies.

This week's lateral thinking puzzle was contributed by listener Dianna Gabbard. Here are two corroborating links (warning -- these spoil the puzzle). We're very sorry to have to say that we recently had to say goodbye to Sasha. We feel very grateful that we got to share our lives with her for over 18 years, but several days ago we learned that she had advanced bone cancer. Until quite recently she had been very active, alert, and engaged in life, so the news was rather a shock to us. The cancer wasn't treatable, and after a few days we realized that the time had come for us to have to say goodbye. She will be very missed, and no beloved pet is ever fully replaceable, but we do hope at some point in the future to find another cat that needs a good home, when we are ready.

Dollhouses make weird tombstones.

Our friend Rosie joins the pod to try to discuss interior design and the OA with the fellas.  We also talk about Tom Hanks and how great he could have been in Apollo 11. Trivia on Debut Albums and Dollhouses.

If you think our podcast has tackled this question already, JUST YOU WAIT! The universe recently tested Sherry’s dollhouse fixation and whether she passed or failed it, well, may depend on who you ask. We also share what item Ikea was mysteriously selling in bulk - but only in America (we laughed out loud at the big reveal) and we hear from some listeners about how space makeovers can affect behavior in a fascinating way. Plus some interesting lessons someone learned when they challenged themselves to dress in only one color. And we talk about the always emotional topic of textured walls. Buckle your seatbelts. Be sure to check out younghouselove.com/podcast-135/ for notes, links, and photos from this episode.

Everything we're watching right now is scary and sad — why is that? From the ravages of dementia (paranormal dementia?) in Castle Rock to the...whydunnit murder mystery The Sinner to the deeply unsettling ending to Sharp Objects, this week is not exactly awash in puppies and rainbows. At least there's Insecure, which might be in a bit of a slump, but still features the most attractive cast on television. In other news, what on earth is the reasoning behind reviving Veronica Mars for another season?! Shows discussed: Sharp Objects, The Sinner, Castle Rock, Insecure, Veronica Mars (but why?)

Back in the 1950s, St. Louis was segregated and The Ville was one of the only African-American neighborhoods in the city. The community was prosperous. Black-owned businesses thrived and the neighborhood was filled with the lovely, ornate brick homes the city has become famous for. But driving around The Ville today, the neighborhood looks very different. Some buildings are simply rundown or abandoned, but others are missing large chunks entirely. Walls have disappeared.
