  2. The toys I used to make at home were a doll. I used to make it with hay and a tea bag and a piece of cloth and sticks I used to put they hay into the tea bag and put the cloth around the top of it and work out eyes on the cloth with a pencil. Then I used to get sticks for the hands and legs and stick them through the bag. I used to make necklaces with daisies. The way I used to make it was with a needle a threat I used put the needle through the flowers until it would be long enough for a necklace.
