This is Ivi's chest of toys. Being almost a teenager, Ivi has outgrown most toys but she does have a handful that she likes. She is more of reader and studier than anything else but there are a few toys that she is not ashamed to play with or that she actually finds enjoyment in. Here re those handful of toys for you to view.

Ivi just has one stuffed animal that she tells me her father gave her. This wolf has no name but it sits on the top of one of her bookshelves, right next to her bed. She has had it since she was born and she doesn't let anyone take it down. She will take it down herself very rarely, only when she is frightened or in need of old memories.

Ivi isn't one to play outside much, unless she is flying a kite or reading in the sun. She does the latter much more but if her siblings tease her and tempt her enough then she will. This is her kite for those rare occasions. Sometimes, if the winds are strong enough, this girl will sit with her back against a tree and tie the kite string to her leg. The darndest thing!

Ivi likes quiet things so she loves bubbles. Her brother isn't too fond of them but Ivi will lay on her stomach and blow them into the wind and just watch them fall to earth. her adopted younger siblings love to chase them. She sometimes blows them inside, if her great-great grandfather has started to clean it is actually a help because it doesn't mess the floor up!

Ivi isn't much for the athletic things but she does have hula hoop. She doesn't use it the traditional way around her hips though. Ivi is more found to twirl it on her neck or ankles. She uses it to skip a lot, out in the courtyard. Sometimes, she and her brother will make a game of tossing the hoops back and forth through the air. Often without success.
