Yes it is true. I am a big kid at heart. I am raising kids and I am one at heart. I also think that this has affected my kids. Some of them have grown up to be big kids at heart as well. My biggest excentricity about it is that I am a huge Eeyore fan. I have eeyore all around my house. I sleep in eeyore pajamas. My husband is the same except he really likes Homer Simpson. It is becomming a war between eeyore and Homer around my house...lol. My father in law really likes Mickey Mouse, my daughter is a huge fan of Betty Boop. well you get the idea. Ok so here is why I made this post, Are you a kid at heart? Do you have a favorite character? If so how far do you go as far as collections? Please tell me there are more people out there like me :)

I'm definitely a kid at heart. I still watch Spongebob and tons of other cartoons. In fact, right now I'm watching All That on Teen Nick. I love kid's shows. I love anything having to do with the 90's since that's when I grew up. I still eat Spaghetti-O's and Ramen Noodles. I'm definitely a kid at heart!

Hahahaha. I also enjoy some of the kid shows. Although a times I get tired of them as my kids watch them all the time and so I see them repeat a million times...lol. You are still a young pup, so lets hope for every decade older you get you will keep being young at heart. Life is too short to get really serious all the time.

I think it is just staying young, I too am a big kid at heart and I think it is a good thing, no one likes serious grumpy people and I have always said act your age and you will be that age...stay young and enjoy life...

Yes how true. Plus it is a bonus that I can have so much fun with my grandkids. Thanks for sharing.

I think that I am. Mostly because it is an escape so I don't completely lose whatever remains of my sanity. Because as anyone who is mature enough to be an adult knows, being an adult quite frankly sucks. Which really there are going to be a lot of times where as a child, we can't wait to grow up. Yet, when we are adults, we miss the simple pleasure of childhood. It is just funny how life works like that a lot of the time. I find that most of the entertaining shows are animated shows. Based towards children. Of course, I think that some of the cartoon people realize that they have a potential target audience, because there are little jokes that only adults might get that chuckle at. Still I'm a child at heart. I think that anyone is obviously isn't mature enough. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it a lot of the time. Still childhood never truly leaves our hearts.

I think I'm a person of heart though, I I do not have family and don't follow cartoons like the Simpsons. I still believe that even today you can find out, fortunately, people like you.

Don't worry, I love Peter Rabbit, I sometimes buy my daughter things just because they are with Peter.I saw the movie Miss Potter just because it was about the woman who created him, I have tons of coloring sheets with Peter ( and I colour alongside my daughter ).I also still want to be an astronaut, even if I know there is no chance.

I've always been a big kid at heart. I still watch all sorts of Disney movies and Pixar movies with my family and my girlfriend. I have stuffed animals on my bed. I have action figures on my desk, army men underneath my desk, and video games from when I was a kid lying around. I still play card games like Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Magic (although this one doesn't really represent kids) with my friends. I guess in some instances I'm more of just a nerd than a kid, but honestly, what boy doesn't love playing with toy soldiers? I can't wait until I get the opportunity to have kids. I think raising them will be fine solely for the purpose of going through all those "little kid" activities again. Hopefully they love all of it just as much as I still do.

I've seen a lot of people like you, especially those that were featured in our local channels I have a favorite character but I have never gone that far. There was a time 'though that I have thought about collecting things of my favorite characters but I have a lot of them that I like that I did not know which one to concentrate on I ended up not collecting any
