About this scrapbook page:
Done for the Button ch. Dawn said to use our imagination so I hope this is ok. We didn't have many toys when we were young so we had to make our own and this game of buttons is one of them, Before clothes were given to the ragman buttons were removed for reusing so every house had a button tin. the aim of the game is that with one lick of the thumb we had to see how many buttons we could pick up one at a time and drop them in the eggcup, I still play this game with my granddchildren and they love it.

As Pauline says great nostalgia. I still have a button tin all the family come to when they lose a button. I used to let the grandkids play with them when they were little - they concocted all sorts of games with them.
Fabulous photos and page.

Brilliant scavenger page Jan, great photos and thank you for the memories - my gran, as part of my lessons in learning patience (not one of my qualities), would have me sort out her button jars, supersized sweet jars. I had to sort the colours, remove cotton threads and count them. I was very familiar with the 'lick & drop' method of picking up several buttons in one movement! Love your page xx
