We were set to think of things that associated with particular objects. These are what I came up with:
A Ball
American Dream
Playing with fathers
Sunny Days
Happy Days
Cricket - India
'Extra' Gum
Mint
Green
School
Tables
Ice-cream
'Humdinger' (the business)
Buzzlight Toy figure
Childhod
Toy Story
Inspiration
Space
TV
Fun
These are connotations of the objects.
Connotations : Non-literal meanings we interpret of something
Then we did a feather
Feather
Light
Air
Space
Freedom
Angel
Heaven
Wings
We linked this to Tom Hanks Forrest Gump opening scene where the feather floats around until it lands near a person.
The simplicity of the feather really interprets the main character as the feather floats around carelessly, getting close to people but moves around is exactly like the character - Forrest Gump.
Forrest goes around and meets people but moves around until he finds himself.
This is a Mcguffin: An object or device in a film or a book which serves merely as a trigger for the plot
