Video transcript

I was at home when I seen my little boy playing with a doll. Then I remembered when I was little, the doll I used to play with, it was called Amy. I used to play with it every day. It was a stuffed doll with a hard head and hard arms and legs. It had a pink dress with a pink hat. But now they got dolls with prams, nappies, bottles, dummies, baths, clothes and shoes and lots more. My sister had a toy, it was a green frog. She never played with dolls she used to play with the green frog like it was a doll. Then when I looked at the toys now they have all changed. They are electronic toys, coloured toys, musical toys but my little boy loves playing with the electronic toys that sing and light up. I’ve still got my doll it is old now and dirty, has got pen all over it face. But the pink hat and dress it lost now. I’m going to keep my doll coz my little boy likes to play with it sometimes with is friends.
