I used to play with it when I was there for day, and got bored.

They call me Stubby.

to be careful with sharp object I suppose. I have a plastic one somewhere. Don’t remember when I was in grade school that children were allowed to use them. Only the teachers or art teachers—back in the ‘60’s.
I remember I had a toy iron that actually worked. Now that seems crazy to me today. Don’t know what my mom was thinking. I hate ironing by the way.
