HOW DID YOU PLAY? BY MICHAEL STEMMLER

Legos have a set of instructions.

Pokémon should be caught.

Bratz dolls have outfits and identities.

Beyblades are confined to an arena.

Monopoly money is for buying property.

Thomas the Train has a set of tracks.

Playdoh has one color in a container.

Easy-bake ovens have recipe packets.

Lincoln logs build log cabins.

Yugioh has one way to play.

Mighty beanz are collectables.

Bionicles look cool on a shelf.

Every toy and game has a structured purpose – how did you really play? By the rules?

How would you play now?
