   Many boys and girls long ago made their own toys such as follows. Nice matches are required for making spinning tops out of spools by putting a nail through the spool and shaping it like a top.
   Bow and arrow, of willow rod and twine.
   Cradlebird - Elder sticks (20) willow rod cross wise (about 1) standing up on 1 stick y.
   Catapult - sticks and rubber, and a bit of leather,
   Lamp out of turnip, dolls out of turnip.
   If you get a piece of stick and a piece of rope and tie the rope to the end of the stick you will have a whip. If you get a bunch of rushes and put one over the other you will have a rattler. If you get a spool and cut the two ends off, and put a little piece of stick in the middle, you will make a yo-yo.
   Young children love making fancy toys such as dolls made out of straw and covered over with a nice little dress. Girls always make dolls, Boys make tops out of the top of a handle
