    I was born in the late 50’s, my favourite memory was getting a stocking filled with little things, chocolates, orange, coins and nuts but best of all we always got a book with our stocking. These were always placed at the bottom of our bed. Yes we had other gifts under the Christmas tree but it was always the stocking and book that thrilled me the most.

    • @joycegreer9391
      @joycegreer9391 4 роки тому +1

      @Sponge Bob They might be born the same, but what they are exposed to is quite different which then makes them different from kids in the 1950's.

    • @joycegreer9391
      @joycegreer9391 4 роки тому +1

      @Sponge Bob No, you are ignorant of the influences on children during different time periods. Now is very different from pre-1960's.
      When were you born?

    • @joycegreer9391
      @joycegreer9391 4 роки тому +1

      @Sponge Bob I sure don't trust you. You haven't said when you were born??
      We were comparing now with 1950's, not all of human history. Children are as different depending on their circumstances as are adults, and there is a big difference from age 2 to age 8 to age 15. You do appear to be quite ignorant, and you know nothing about my knowledge or anything else.
      The world is much worse now than it was pre-1960's.

    • @joycegreer9391
      @joycegreer9391 4 роки тому +1

      @Sponge Bob You are irrelevant. You won't even state when you were born. Nobody here said anything about stress-free. If you don't know how much worse the world is now than pre-1960's, then you are very ignorant of the times.
      So I guess adults remain the same and 15 year olds are no different than 2 year olds according to your intellect. Then you contradict yourself about children remaining the same by stating only if/because parents shield them.
      Go away troll. This is about happy nostalgia, not your nonsense. FYI--it IS about the 1950's. YOU are probably a kid who thinks he knows it all, but really knows nothing and just likes to harass and irritate adults.

    I enjoyed seeig which toys i remembered getting at Christmas. The best game shown for me was the rod hockey game where moving the rods on the ends of the board controlled the players to score goals like real hockey. It became so popular in my neighborhood when the St. Louis Blues hockey team started up in 1967-1968 the interest expanded to more kids in my neighborhood and we would have our own 6 player league set up and kept standings, had playoffs, and a Stanley Cup winner just like the NHL. I got two different ones from 1960 through 1969. Prior to the Blues, St. Louis had a minor league hockey team the St. Louis Braves for the Chicago Black Hawks so I grew up liking hockey. From St. Louis

    Even though I was a child of the 70's and 80's, a lot of those toys transitioned into my era, and I remember them fondly, especially the cobbler's bench, Etch A Sketch, Lincoln Logs, the magic 8 ball, Mouse Trap, Silly Putty, and Tinker Toys. I'm surprised Erector sets weren't mentioned. People from that era sure loved their toy robots and model airplanes, didn't they?

    Such great memories, those old bubble pipes. Kooties, jumping beans, all the Dolls, loved dressing and combing their hair. That old metal frog , peez candy dispensers pop Pearl's, & hoola hoops , my little record player, guitar, silly putty, snow sled , which was my very favorite, My Dad and Mom would take me out on a country road and pull me behind the car on that sled. Boy you couldn't do that now! Even country roads are so traveled. Then my Great Uncle Roy would pull me on that sled on the grass in the hot summertime. Wow I love this video of days gone by, gee so many great toys and memories. Please Christmas dont be late ! We sure thought that too, couldn't wait for Christmas. Lovely walk through time, Thanks so much.This is a happy but also sad video, it reminds me of my once great life when parents and family were still alive and well. I miss them all so much! I shed a few tears over this one!

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I do understand the tears, as I shed a few while I made it, too. Love those memories of family and friends.

    Great clip--all the toys I used to have--getting old? maybe. - and those 2 doll with the clothes thing viewers--you're daft. I recall my sister and her dolls--taking them to the tub with her and giving them a bath, too. Only objection my Mom has was the hollow arms and legs and such held water, and it dripped everywhere, but they all worked it out. Like you said--great memories.

    I was born in 1952, when you showed the Vac U Form, I had to pause and take a long nostalgic look. I remember the year 1965 when I received my Vac U Form on Christmas day.

    I remember so many of these! Do kids even play with toys anymore or just stare at screens? Thanks for the video and happy memories!

    Love this Christmas video and the trip down memory lane it takes all that have lived long enough to remember those wonderful decades. Thanks to the author who went to the effort to produce this video.

    I was born in 1955 and I had most of the toys. I know that Vac-u-form and the Wood burning set would not have a chance today. We rode bicycles without helmets, drank hose water, catch lightning bugs, and when the street lights came on it was time to get home.
