"As the day grew long and the sun fell in the sky, the giggling reel of teeter-totters, swings and round-abouts, hopscotch, tag and hide-and-seek gave way to more tranquil times sitting among circles of friends in the shade of old trees. The last few moments of yet another carefree, Summer day were spent with spiky Jacks and tangled knots of cats-cradles or playing Gypsy seers with our folded paper fortune-tellers.".
DESIGN DETAILS... A full alphabet (included in your chartpack) allows you to customize the 'heart' of your beaded and embellished Fortune-Teller with your name and, perhaps, a dedication to the children you love. The first layer of your delightful plaything offers your friends, children, grand-children, lover... whoever... a choice of flowers. "Which is your favourite... the Pansy, Sunflower, Violet or Daisy?" Another level asks "Which is your favourite coloured balloon... Yellow, Blue, Green or Purple?" The final choice is between 4 animals... "Do you prefer a Cat, a Horse, a Rabbit or a Mouse?" Then, with a flip of your hand (and the help of your Fortune-Telling booklet & the 8 charms which are inside your chartpack) you can delight everyone with their 'reading'. Will they be advised to “Believe in Yourself”, prompted to “Make a Wish” or simply told “I love You”.
