| This tiny teddy (or monkey?) is about the size of a Kinder Surprise toy. I found him in the picnic area the week after Easter. |

| This ghost (about the size of a Happy Meal toy) was near the parking lot of the local public rugby pitch. |

| I found this clay hedgehog (probably a child's craft project) along the side of the road. |
What about you? Have you encountered any random toys out there in the wild lately?
Cutting my parents lawn last weekend ,I almost ran over my nieces mini mermaid toy,lol.
ReplyDeleteHeh, I'm always a little amazed that I don't find decapitated toys after the park maintenance guys do their thing. Just dismembered tennis balls! lol
DeleteThat's a pretty good group you've photographed! I can't recall if I've seen any random toys out and about, but now I'll definitely be looking! :)
ReplyDeleteAfter you see enough of them it become a bit of a game!
DeleteThe friend who walks her dogs with mine every morning has gotten used to me randomly bending down to photograph half-buried plastic toys now. ;)
I'm pretty sure the baby carriage was originally part of a Calico Critters set. These toys were also called Sylvanian Families in some places. I always enjoy your random toy sightings posts. Ever since I was a child I've been interested in the random things that turn up at the local playground or on the beach. I remember one time I was at a state park walking along the river and I found the plastic rope from a game of Clue washed up among the driftwood.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for sharing.

Thanks for the information about the baby carriage. I love those little flocked animals! :)
DeleteGreat finds! Once gardening at our cottage I found a half pet shop horse. Then I found a devastated girl. How this had happened, I do not know but it all ended with a trip to the toy store, searching for a new pet shop horse. Gladly we found one.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there was a happy ending! :)
DeleteI really like these posts of randomly found abandoned toys. I have found a few things myself on my walks and one of these days I will photograph them as I find them!
ReplyDeleteI saw a aeroplane with a broken wing, I even saw not one but TWO table football games left at two different recycling bins on the very same day!! I see lots of punctured inflatables too, seeing as I walk near the beach!

Two football table games on the same day sounds hilarious. Was it the day of an epic loss at the World Cup, leading the owners to want to think of anything other than football, maybe? ;)
DeleteThis is so cute! The clay hedgehog is adorable, and I feel bad it was abandoned D:
ReplyDeleteAt least it got to go on an adventure! Being clay, I think it will probably biodegrade, so it's a circle of life moment of sorts.
DeleteIs it me or is that bow-tie wearing ghost also masked? Cute!
ReplyDeleteYou find the most interesting toys! Good eye for them! Thanks for sharing ;-)
