Re: Toys From Our Childhood
I loved paper dolls.
Jacks, and pick up sticks.

Re: Toys From Our Childhood
I remember 1960's video games. You didn't know we had video games back then? Well, we did.
Turn the TV off, take your finger and play Tic-Tac-Toe or draw faces in the dust on the TV screen. Works best if you live on a dusty gravel road like we did! Works well on any dusty surface. Back window of a station wagon was great!

Re: Toys From Our Childhood
One of my favorite "toys" was my washer and "dryer" - - clothes line outside! I played for HOURS doing house chores! LOL! It was just like mom's, but littler!

Re: Toys From Our Childhood
Barbie Dream House!
It was cardboard and had tabs to hold it together. My little cousin was taking a nap in my room and got up and tore all the tabs off so my dream house wasn't a dream anymore. I was so sad. My aunt never even offered to buy me a new one -- she just said boys will be boys.

I remember my mom hanging the clothes from the washer to dry on a clothesline.
One day my mom washed our white sheets & they were hanging out to dry.
I had one of those pump air rifles & I found out if you jammed the rifle end into the dirt pumped the rifle & shot, the dirt made a neat projectile!
What made me decide to use the clean white sheets as target practice, I'll never know, but I was 4 years old so I plead temporary insanity.
Back then whipping a kid with a wooden spoon wasn't considered child abuse!
I didn't repeat the same mistake!
