- Nearly every person could make some kind of an home-made toy.Sometimes a necklace of daisy's. They get a needle and thread and gather the heads of daisies and sew them all together, and then the necklace is made. People often make a home-made ball for children, by getting many pieces of wool and joining them, and leaving them very loose. Sometimes people make a rag doll, by cutting a piece of cloth the shape of a doll, and sewing it except at one end. From this end it is filled with sawdust and then a face is made by painting eyes a nose a mouth and ears on it.People sometimes knit a teddy bear. A person should knit a piece the shape of a teddy bear, fill it with sawdust, and put a bead for each eye and some red wool for the mouth.(continues on next page)
