Olivia: Have fun with Olivia...dressing up, singing songs, building sand castles, napping (maybe),dancing, painting on walls, and --whew!-- going to sleep at last. Olivia...and the Missing Toy: Olivia has one toy that she loves more than anything. She feeds him, dresses him and takes him everywhere. So when he disappears, Olivia is FURIOUS!
