~ Clays ~

Greetings pupil.

Do you remember clay? I am talking about the ones with which used to make a lot of things and it used to have many colors. I remember being fond of all the 7 colors. I could give shape to it and also re-make as many times I want. I miss those days.

When I think of it, it doesn't feel long time ago. There are so many games alike that in which we immerse ourselves even in these days. Unlike previous days, nowadays children are more into video games and sport activities. Back in the days board games and other creative games used to be more known and valued.

As you can see the picture above, it is made out of clay and I myself have made thousands of toys and animals, with clay. I have none in store now, I do not even remember where my clay bucket is. It used to be a red color bucket. Something like the one below.

I have made vegetables, animals, furniture of all kind and also I remember selling them while playing animal-animal. Do you know that kind of game where you have an animal kingdom and each animals are friends with one another. They have had families, companies, schools, and different clothes and food shops to run. Now as I talk, I can feel the enthusiasm that used to work inside us. It is a lot similar to playing stimulation games online.

I have seen clays these days, the texture and everything else is different from those. Maybe these are much better but I did not get much time to handle and play with them. No one would expect a young adult studies medicals play with clays now. That would give anyone a good laughter.

I am happy of the memories that I have accumulated in my childhood. Maybe my childhood game plays were not as advanced as of now but they were fun. It used to make our hands go blue, yellow, red and green but still it used to be fun. I still remember it so clearly that if one of our made furniture or anything which we made used to break or get smashed somehow, we used to burst in tears. We were very fragile or was our emotions. May it be what, but it was fun. Alhamdulillah.

May our children or those of this and the next generation get the pleasures of playing such creative games. Rather than dressing up a doll or saving a woman type games, clays are fall much better and beyond. Oh, I do remember making a hospital building with two trees on both sides and an ambulance. Now, hopefully, I can live in that dream. Only if things get in my favor.

This is my thirty-third post in HIVE. Sometimes, just sometimes, it is okay to let it loose. This is me here, Lemonade1, I am a bookworm and traveler. Bear with me as long as you can.
