When you are a baby, you would think or believe what your parents believed or even said. I believed everything that my parents said. Also, I believed things that other people told me. I used to believe in Santa Claus, watched Barney, and participate in Halloween. These three things are activities that I enjoyed in past, but have no interest in them any more.
One activity that I enjoyed was to believe in the jolly Santa Claus. When I was younger, I would think that every Christmas Santa would come to bring you the latest toys and eat a bunch of high-calorie cookies. Almost every young child believes that. Once I reached age ten, the whole Santa Claus coming down the chimney thing got a little bit questionable. Then soon after that, you find out that there is no such thing and you play along for your younger siblings. For me, my younger sister actually figured it out and raised suspicion so I did not really have to play along. Finally, when you reach the adult age you play along with it and make your children’s dreams come true by buying them those toys and goodies.
Another activity I enjoyed was to watch the popular show called Barney. As a child, the show Barney taught you several things and let you sing your hearts out to the Barney theme song. It’s embarrassing to admit but I just loved that show. I would sit on the couch all day long and watch this same show over, and over. I remember owning about 10 episodes and watching them continuously. I even had an official Barney plush, stuffed thing that I kept by my side all day. The best thing about Barney was their music and their famous theme song, that I know everyone knows. That why I watched Barney so much as a child.
Also, I used to go around in a little costume and say “trick or treat” to all the neighbors to get a big bag full of candy. It would be fun to dress up as my recent best superhero and pretend to be him. For example, one year I dressed up as Spiderman and had a blast pretending to climb up walls and shoot webs at innocent people. I really believed that I was truly a hero that night. It’s also good to get candy. That’s everyone’s best part about Halloween and possibly their dentist because he/she’s getting a lot of customers. You’ve just got to love the excitement in every child’s eyes that Halloween is here. Even if the costume cost a lot, it is worth it to see your child have a huge grin on their faces.
So, I did a lot of things that I now think is un-cool or even just baby related. You just grow out of it when you mature and become a teenager. Everybody changes the way the live concerning their beliefs, customs, and even their daily routines. These were just some things I did as a child and no-longer do as a teenager.
