Toy Stories ~ Social photos

The project «Toy Stories» demonstrates that regardless of the country and the living conditions of all the children of the world in this age want one thing - to play. However, preferences, habits and behavior of children from different parts of the world differ.

Gabriel notes that children in developed countries and affluent families more jealous of his toys, and for a long time did not let the photographer to them, was not allowed to play with them, protecting their "treasures." While the children are from poor countries willingly and easily share their favorite toys, even if it was a single teddy bear.

But there is something in common between all the children who participated in the project. Their favorite toys are a reflection of the life that the family lives. Interests and occupations of parents, daily care and employment responsibilities of family members directly affect the choice of favorite toys. Thus, the photo project Gabriele Galimberti "Toy Story" - a kind of serious anthropological study.
