Sorhor Kizzie22 and Friends of Sigma,

Yes, and I used to get so dizzy playing on that toy. I also used to love jumping rope, playing hop-scotch, and playing with my jacks.

I LOVED my Cabbage Patch Kids!! I think I had like 4 or 5 of em. I popped the heads off of all my Barbies. And I hated Cricket too--my cousin got one the same Christmas I got my boy Cabbage Patch. We took a picture together with both dolls and all you can see is Cricket's eyes.:eek: D@mn doll never knew when to shut up............My favorite doll was my Lil Miss Makeup. I played with her so much the makeup just stayed instead of disappearing and reappearing.

I had an Easy Bake Oven but never used it. That may have something to do with why I don't cook today. :D We did the keychain thing too.

Unfortunately Sorhors,

I left the toy era behind when Cabbage Patch dolls were first on the scene. I was in college having fun at that stage in my young life.

I still have the books I bought from those fairs. Some Charlie Brown titles, and a few other ones.

My favorite reading book was Charlotte's Web! I loved that book.

Play dough. I still like it.

I was also a big fan of puppets! I had a Smokey the Bear one!

Serioussigma22:p

I still have my Magic 8 Ball:D

What's a magic eight ball?

I must say that I never had a porcelain doll or those scary clown dolls. I'm still afraid of those white face clown dolls. I just think about the movies "It" and "Attack of the Killer Clowns from Outter (sp) Space."

I recently got a 50th anniversary Candyland complete with 3D gingerbread people playing pieces, fancy cards and a 3D candyland castle. It came in a really pretty light blue canister and everything. I almost like it as much as my Monopoly anniversary edition.

My folks got that waterbug toy whose hair shot out water, and I have been scratched more than once with the waterslide. Well, at least we kept our yard pretty rock-free (maybe a smooth pebble here and there). Can you imagine folks who had bottle glass up in their yard??? Ouch!!!

I also had all kinds of playdoh. The playdoh barber shop, restaurant and everything. It comes in all kinds of neat colors now... :)

Has anyone said anything about Slinky??? Man, I would send that joker down the stairs all of the time.

Sorhor TRSimons,

You can get a Slinky at the local dollar store and they come in all different colors. However, they are made out of thin plastic! How do I know this fact? Well my students in Psychology do a play -day lab (Jean Piaget's Cognitive Development) and I have about thirty different toys that the students examine, of course, using the scientific method. Anyway, I have purchase so many different slinky toys over the past seven years that's its' not even funny.

I loved the slip-n-slide. My dad would set it up and all my friends came over. That was the neighborhood game! What abbout the holla hoop? I thought I was the holla Queen! :D
