I'm getting ready to go do the shopping thing tomorrow and am studying my guy's wish lists. That, and the My Little Pony thread Rabbit started got me thinking...

What was it you loved playing with as a kid?

Matchbox cars...my pride and joy...my Mum used to buy me a new one every week

*LOL*

My glow worm, and my fraggle dolls.........yes I was a child of the 80s.

Barbies, coloring books and my light bright

My friend and I in Baltimore (1950-53) used to have a few of those "Gorki" or "Gorky" cars and trucks (they were really neat British metal cars and trucks and we played with them on a small slope behind where we lived for hours at a time. We called ourselves the Harrison (me) and Duffy (him) Lumber Company. That wasn't our last names but we always used them as the theme for our adventures. No idea why anymore, but we had a ball.

Before I discovered Barbie's at age 7, I liked to make mudpies in my outdoor kitchen.

Transformers :D

And Legos :p

Me.

Who could afford toys back in those days?

Me too! Used to go over to the sandbox at the playground and make a town.. stick bridges and moats too. Used to play for hours!

Alassë,

Yes! Matchbox cars. All the guys had them. Good times. :)

This is frightening. :yikes:

All time favorite toy to about the age 11 was the Erector Set.

My legos and tonka trucks, I remember playin wid dem for hours and hours!

I figured you would have been busy playing in Barbies panty drawer.
