What did you collect as a child?  

this may sound odd, but I collected novelty erasers. You know, the kind that were colorful and shaped like animals or flowers. I had hundreds.

I'm pretty sure I collected My Little Ponys when I was younger. I was such a girlly girl. I also collected the old school My Little Petshop stuff too. I was into the little stuff that dealt with animals. I'm just so weird.

Blue glass, wish I had it now!

Glass Bottles, glass is so cool.

I had a box full of interesting rocks. One looked like a piece of petrified tree bark, another looked like something else that had had string wrapped around it before it petrified - a hatchet head, perhaps. I also had a piece of quartz and iron pyrite (Fool's Gold)... The rest of them were all just neat looking.

In all honesty, I used to collect snails. I had a huge tank full of hundreds of snails. They were the ones with the little cone shaped shells, if you've ever seen them... And I look back on it and can see why people thought I was strange. I really didn't even think of that until now. Wow.

I could remember as a kid i used to collect stickers of all kinds, it started when a girlfriend of my brother gave me stickers and i got hooked up on it and started collecting it on my own. i just put them in a box but i do not stick them anywhere! i would count them if they are complete again and again! Everytime me and my mom would go to a school supplies store and i would always beg her to buy me more stickers! But in the end i guess i also lost interest in it when i reached high school...and for some of the stickers i could not remember where it is now...

We had no money with 6 children so I also loved to collect rocks. They were everywhere and free. Not as pretty as the ones that can be bought now but smoothe and pretty to me. Collecting free,what a good idea.

Hmmmm ... Am going to have to burn a few brain cells to think on this. Let's see. I know we collected Garbage Pail Kids cards. We also collected stickers of all kinds. Ooo, and I remember we made those embroidery thread bracelets. I tried making them again a few years back but could not remember now and none of the tutorial pamphlets on them were helpful in any way.

I also collected leaves from trees, especially during the autumn. Naturally, I couldn't keep them long as they would dry out and crumble. Ah well.

I used to collect a lot of different things from stamps, coins, paper money (especially those foreign ones), first day covers, comic books, comic character cards, video games, story books, toys, etc. So you can imagine how many stuff do I really have.
