Sometimes, the Childhood Collectible Card Game Spills Over into Adulthood

Many times what starts as a boyhood fad, becomes a passion in adulthood. There are instances when men continue their childhood collection throughout their lives. You may know men  and women – who like to collect coins, stamps, baseball. Cricket, soccer cards, scaled-down cars, airplanes miniatures, ship miniatures, army knives, and so on.

The collectible card game started as a trading card game a decade or so ago, which used the popularity of the Pokemon cartoons to promote sales of different children’s items with the help of a collectible card game. This had become an instant success with kids and ever since, there have been many other collectible card games in the market, promoting items for children of all ages.

The Open-handed Rules of the Collectible Card Game

Unlike standard games, the rules here are open to the interpretation of the child, and availability of the cards. They can use the collectible card game to collect cards based on any criteria they feel important. It could be the description of the items contained on the card (baseball star, Pokemon, cricketer, soccer star, etc) and the player will have to collect as many cards as possible cards he or she is able to swap or buy.

Toy stores capitalize on these fads and often arrange tournaments and swaps where kids can come and battle it out as to what deals they would like to strike for adding more cards to their collection.

The spill over happens when the collection looks too good to discard. The adult boy many times does not like to let go of his childhood memories. Some of them revel in the boyhood fancies because they feel good thinking and reliving their childhood through it.

When this happens, these collectibles get a new emotional dimension and the collection become a precious part of the past. The adult now revels in what he had put together as a boy, and will continue to enhance his collection throughout his life, with the hope that one day he could proudly hand it over to his children and grandchildren.

it doesn’t matter for me and lots of people i know,we can read another book and imagine something more from another literature.

seriously,i don’t like harry potter that much. well, even it against the world about what i said,but i’m honest with myself………i can say and tell u guys again and again that i don’t like harry potter that much. anway i’m not some kind of presstimistic,i have the reason about what i think.

yeah,harry potter is fun,i accept this. but it some kind of instant fun.

i’m not sure,but i guess that the writer had planed for the book to return to be a film,’cause some scene and some gag is some kind of film’s trick.

yeah,harry potter is full of imagine,i accept. but in same way is the kind of instant imagine.

the reader will have no chance to imagine something more than the letter in the book.
compare with the another writer as “roald dah” ,”michael ende” and bra bra bra. they gave the reader more space to imagine something out of the letter and the words in a book. reader can see a new whole world by their feeling.

…………………….

i know u guys that so harry potter mania will hate me ’cause what i said. so let u hate or agrument about me,u have your own’s right. for me aswell,i have my right, i will still say the same thing…………….

i don’t like harry potter.
