Rules? (They're more like "guidelines")
- The first rule of Blanket Box is that there are no rules :D
- Feel free to interpret the prompts however you see fit. Everyone's past/childhood is different, and not everyone had the same people, places and things when they were younger! So, please amend or skip prompts if you don't feel that they fit.
- You can interpret "childhood" however it makes sense to you to interpret. It's not a fixed or static thing (and I won't pin anyone down to a particular age, that would be very unfair), so go with what you instinctively think of as your childhood/younger years.
- Feel free to link to your replies below
The Prompts
1. What was your favourite childhood toy? (Can be a plush toy or other kind)
2. What was your favourite cartoon or TV show?
3. What's an activity or hobby from your childhood that you would like to go back to?
4. Who was your childhood best friend? (You don't have to name them - it can be just a description!)
5. What was your first pet? (Or if you weren't allowed pets - what pet did you really want?)
6. If you were allowed one, what was your earliest gaming console? Favourite video game?
7. What was your favourite childhood food/meal?
8. What is the first job you dreamed of having?
9. What was your favourite childhood book (or author)?
10. Name a film you used to watch on repeat!
11. What's an object from your childhood that you still own? (Bonus: Include a photo!)
12. Did you collect anything as a child?
13. What was your first holiday (vacation), or favourite holiday?*
14. What's one place from your childhood that you wish you could revisit?
15. What's one song that reminds you of your childhood/youth?
16. Tell us about a distinctive childhood memory.
*Edited this in April because I realised that "holiday" was causing some UK/non-UK English confusion 😅 In the UK, "holiday" = vacation. If we're talking about Christmas/Easter/etc. we'll just specify the occasion.
