Does anyone like twister? I loved that game as a kid, and I love it more as an adult. I only like playing with hot women though.

Lite Brite is a classic though. Even my kids (13 and 15) had a Lite Brite and loved it.

My girlfriends who lived next door were the only grandchildren in their family. For some reason, they used their parents' board games! Miss Scarlett looked a lot more sketchy back in the 1940's-50's!

Fave games as a little kid:

Clue
Guess Who
Monopoly (we had the San Diego edition because we lived there)

You just made my day because a) Lite Brite was HUGE in my house and b) because I have the Fraggle Rock theme song in my head.

Now if the song gets stuck there, we may have issues... haha

Does anyone remember the game of Tiddlywinks? Or how about the Cootiers game!
My brother had Hot Wheels and he had the tracks that went with them.
However, as I later learned, that hot wheels plastic track let marks on your butt when it was welded in lieu of a belt!

One of my favorite games growing up... Shark Attack!

^^^*shivers* I just had a flashback of when Jaws first came out...

Lite Brite was awesome, but it sucked that the papers weren't really reusable. Once you'd used a paper, you'd poked holes in all the little circles that told you what color to put where!

I remember running to Target in the middle of my friend's sweet 16 party so we could buy Twister.:D

*Those Mary Kate & Ashley movies/tv shows on video. They were like "Mary Kate & Ashley's Mystery Cruise" or "Escape to Witch Mountain" back when the Olsens were like 8.

*The Pretty Pretty Princess board game.

*Mall Madness (the board game). We played this all the time when I had sleepovers in elementary school.

*The 90210 character dolls. I had Kelly and Donna.

*The Play Dough McDonalds playset. You could make fries, burgers, and stuff out of your Play Dough.

*Shoes that lit up when you walked. Typically LA Gear and sold at Payless. Bonus if you had 2 pairs of shoelaces (pink and white) in yours.

*The Snoopy Snowcone machine.

*Games like Trouble & Sorry.

*Watching Tailspin, Darkwing Duck, and Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers after school.
