Description:

This is a free for all. Sounds dangerous, right?

This swap will be International, and you will have 1 partner. In a small notebook - any size that is mail able, store bought or hand made (just be sure the pages all stay connected) - list different aspects of your childhood that you miss. This can be a list a page, or you can write a few paragraphs about your favorite activities and so on. You can add pictures, stickers or magazine cut outs (collage style) or write entries, or do a mix of both. Anything goes, as long as it is all in a notebook, the pages are secured, you include 15 topics/lists, and it relates to your childhood.

Confused? Here's an example:

I may take a small-ish notebook, about 3x5 inches, and write a heading at the top of each page, such as: "Favorite books from my childhood", "Favorite cartoons", "Favorite Toys" and so on. I could make a list of the favorite books I can remember, then maybe find an image online and print it out to add to the page for illustration.
For "Favorite cartoons" I could list my favorites, and then talk about the episode of Scooby Doo that still - to this day! - scares the snot out of me, and what I remember about it.
For "Favorite toys" I could talk about my Barbie dolls, and my memories of the Cabbage Patch Kids craze. Then continue through the pages like that. Decorate as little or as much as you want. Do you have 'flag' sticky notes for Mr. Rogers Neighborhood? Use them to decorate the page. Have a few Strawberry Shortcake stickers, you can add them if you like.

You can really do just about anything you wish with this swap, as long as you follow the above parameters. Then send it off to your partner and see how much you have in common. :) Does anyone else remember watching Inspector Gadget on TV? How about Danger Mouse? OR the ever popular Warner Brothers/Bugs Bunny? Did you search your closet for the door to Narnia? Please tell us! :)

If you have any questions, please send me a PM I'm still lousy about remembering to check comments. :( I know my swaps are usually more detailed, and this just isn't. But hopefully it will be fun. :)

This swap isn't profile based, so start on it when you wish. It might take more time than you expect!
