Suggestive Toys

Ever wondered how plush toys do look like in Russia. If they use same teddy bears as American kids have or they have some Ivan Bears?
I am not sure about little Winnie-the-Poohs but they for sure have some tigers and more, being done on this toy factory.
And no matter what toys they would make for Russian children they still are afraid of N1H1 virus using masks too.
Winter Slides

And after the fall winter comes, so many children wanna ride their ice slides and have a good time.
Russian Countryside Assorted

Some glimpses on Russian countryside.
Baby Dolls

These are not mother and her numerous kids, this is a “Baby Doll Fair”, a strange event in St. Petersburg, Russia where dolls of infants, toddlers and babes are widely presented and being sold.
Playgrounds 3

We continue publishing shots from the selected playgrounds in different Russian cities. Some say that those playgrounds are too creepy, but others say such artwork shows to the children the truth of life right from the first steps they make. Well, I think that kids are too busy with their own inner world to care about all this “nice” or “not nice” playgrounds, it’s more an adults issue to call them “ugly” or “creepy”, kids usually just use the practical side of the playgrounds and don’t care on the design, but for grown-ups it can be a shocking experience especially if they encounter on of those from the last photos of this set in some dark night.
Adopted Russian Kids

These photos don’t need comments. These are photos of Russian kids adopted from “children’s home” the worst place for a kid to be. They get there a budget of $100/mo for each kid, they don’t have toys they don’t have love of parents it’s sad and that’s great that there are people even in Russia who can adopt and save kids.
All the photos are in “Before and After” manner, you can easily tell where is the “before” photo.
Saddam and Bush Stand Together

One guy has sent it photos of the toys his kids play in the local kindergarten in Russia. It seems that some Russian kids even at early age are fond of playing in Bush and Saddam…
More Russian Toys

We’ve seen sometime ago the dolls that were being imported for Russian kids, and now somebody sent us a sleigh he bought for his kid. This time it’s even not a Chinese, but a German product. But I wonder if they sell them to any other countries except Russia, or would it be more correct to ask if parents in some other country buy this?
And would you buy such sleigh for your kids?
Steel Playground

Steel style children playground in small Satka town near Chelyabinsk, Russia.
Soviet Architecture in Cartoons

Most of old Russian cartoons back from the Soviet Era are notable for the landscapes of the fantasy Soviet reality. Totally childish cartoon plots were taking place on magnificent background of “Stalin’s” architectural forms. Just take a look.
