My Papa was born in 1932 and grew up on a farm. I was born in 2006 and I am growing up in a big city. On Sunday I interviewed him by FaceTime and learnt all about his life as a boy. We had VERY different lives.Take a look at these questions and our different answers... 3
<< DEAN (7 1/2 years old) >> << DEAN (82 years old) >> I was born in a big city (Sydney). I am growing up in an apartment. I was born on a farm in South Australia.

<< DEAN (7 1/2 years old) >> << DEAN (82 years old) >> I played in a park across the road from our apartment or in my bedroom with my toys and Max. I played with my sister, Judy and brother Whyard. You had to make up your own games like chasing chickens! Where did you play and have fun? 5
