Russian Matrioshka Dolls



Have you ever seen Sesamin Street? It was my favourite show when i was young.. i will count along with big bird, elmo, ....and in one of the counting along, there will be the beautiful stacking dolls... we will go One.. and then it will open up.. then Two.. and another mini doll will come out.. i was always amaze how many were stored inside these dolls..


Ohh wait... another childhood memory suddenly pop out.. i seem to recall that my neighbour.. childhoon play mate "AH GIRL" also seem to have one which was bought by her musician father.. but that memory is quite blurred.. so not sure if occured or not.. haha






So when Dino bought this for me last Dec .. i was very happy... the photo doesn't do justice.. coz it is very shiny red and very nice...

Matrioshka Dolls, The name derives from an old Russian word for "mother", since all the dolls are nesting inside the largest. You might see only one doll, but pull them apart at the middle and you'll discover 3, 4 and even 5 dolls...
