This morning I browsed around the children's department of our public library. Finally I left Kitty in a chair at the back of the room. There were quite a few people there but no one seemed to be paying any attention to me. It's really fun to think of places to leave toys and to imagine a child having a magical moment finding one.
Knitting IS magical! When you think that the materials (cotton string/yarn) for this toy cost less than two dollars, well, that is a lot of pleasure on both sides for a small amount of money. I forgot to write on the label that Kitty is machine washable cotton in case it is loved for a long time.

What a sweet, beautiful idea! What is written on your note?
I just used the tag available from The Toy Society when you join. Whoever wrote it did a great job.
I love this idea. I'll have to remember this when I'm trying to figure out something fun to do with my kids this summer. I could provide the homemade toy - they could think of a sneaky way to leave it somewhere out in public!
Do you know, I feel better just knowing there are people like you in the world!
