IL 60050 815 /383-2966 < by Gwendolyn E. Danner > And have your children seen the old time toys at the McHenry County museum at Union" Have your little girls seen the dolls that go back more than a hundred years to the 1860s" The dolls have china heads with painted, wavy, black hair neatly parted in the middle Their eyes are mostly blue, but some have brown. They all have charming red mouths that never say a word Most of these oldest dolls have wardrobes of old fashioned clothing-no Barbie doll fashions for them, but long dresses, tucked and lace- trimmed like proper babies and small girls wore. There are other dolls, too, dolls with kid bodies and bisque heads. If you are a mother look for the kind of dolls you used to treasure, the lovely, huggable, soft rubber-bodied dolls. Do not forego the pleasure of the doll furniture. There are doll beds and chairs; there are little pianos, rocking chairs-some big enough for the dolly's mama to sit in and rock her; there is a chest of drawers big enough to hold all the doll clothes a grandmother could be coaxed to make. But if I tell you all the items, you won't have the thrill of finding them yourself! Do not think boys' treasures have been omitted, although boys do not seem to treasure their playthings as much But there are games, there are old style cars, there is a top-many, many things I think your son may be interested in the many kinds of sleds from the one that was meant for the very young child to be pushed in, with a handle like a baby carriage, to the kind that went flying down the nearest hill, one boy on top of another. There will be other things to interest you, too, but sometime in August while there are no programs going on, spend a leisurely time at the museum introducing your children to those playthings from thirty, fifty, a hundred years or more ago.
