Another fun toy were the bubble toys. Had water in them and you pressed a button that sent bubbles to move rings to land on hooks at various levels. Thank you for memories.
Real Lincoln Logs, Tinkertoys, Legos, Chrissy, Cinnamon and Velvet dolls with adjustable hair, Mr. Potato Head, Dawn dolls, Spirograph, LiteBrite, Perfection, Fisher-Price Garage and Village....so fun. And a Sears Christmas catalog.
Man, our neighbors 2 girls and me and my 2 sisters used to play dolls together, we all brought our dolls to their house and traded, there were actual FIGHTS over Baby Chrissy!
I was born in 66’ I remember grandma would hand us grandkids (8 of us) the Sears Christmas catalogue and give us a $10.00 limit, we had so much fun going through it and picking out our gifts, I remember my cherished baby doll one year and a Cher doll another year. We only got one thing but it was a very wanted item and we were all happy. 👍🏻 🎄
WOW Very nostalgic !!! I have experienced most of the games listed here when I was a child. I also remember "Mouse Trap", "Jaws" "Smash up Derby" "Stretch Armstrong" "Meccano" "Lego" "Fisher Price record player" and many others. Thank for sharing these memories
Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots, Operation, Don't Break The Ice, Electronic Battleship, Nerf Footballs, Clackers, Etch a Sketch, Sea Monkey's, and who could forget all those great toys at the bottom of a box of Cracker Jacks?
I also would like to add to my list troll dolls , Ramona and Beatrice books , nancy drew books , and little house on the prairie book set . Barbie camper, and barbie airline hostess with barbies own airlines and a game of jacks was always fun to play and so was the game trouble. And my subscription of highlights magazines , and ordering books and cute animal posters from our schools monthly scholastics book fair
Oh lord, Perfection. That game was far more stressful than it should have been. And yet I loved it. Miss the the old Little People designs. One of my favorite sets was a car and camper that had a motorcycle too. The camper folded out with a cloth top.
I remember the little people I had the jeep and camper and motorcycle and also the view finder as well and i actually think I still have them well I should say if there still there in my mom and dad house in the attic and the car crash station can't remember when it came out
Loved my Spirograph, Hot Wheels, Matchbox Cars, Legos, Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Big Wheel, Schwinn 5-speed bike with banana seat, GAF Viewmaster, Lite Brite, Tyco remote control cars and race track, Lionel electric trains, Mousetrap, kaleidoscopes, Play Doh, Slinky, Duncan yo yo’s, and Fisher Price Farm, School House and Airport, coloring books, paint by number sets, Sanford fruit scented colored markers, tempura paints, Crayola jumbo box of crayons with built in sharpener!
We had a few of the Weebles sets, loved them so much! We had very few toys when we were kids, being fairly poor but weebles and Fisher Price family sets (school house, farm etc…) were toys my parents got us for Christmas and Birthdays (along with tinker toys and Lincoln Logs). We got $1.00 for allowance each week and I would always get a matchbox car from the drugstore after Church. It was fun being a kid back then. (born in 66’)
My sister got shrinky dinks. One year she got Popeye glitter cards and I got a circus color book with a huge box of water colors. My mom was the best. She always had the best presents under the tree. We NEVER got a toy or gift just for going to the store with mom. Actually, we NEVER went to a store with mom. Now, I go to dollar store with my granddaughter and am guilty of usually letting her get something. It's best not to take kids to these Mish mash of everything stores.
@@ferociousgumby 😂 lol!my mom MADE her own version for us, but I preferred Kleen Klay: a petroleum based modeling clay that didn't dry out as i was the sculptor of the family. I would recognize Kleen Klay by its smell, if they still make it..
@@hereticpariah6_66 Oh yes!!! We made our own Play Doh, my grandkids and me, but it always dried out. Personally I preferred modelling with Plasticine, which was oil-based and never dried out.
I was born in 1963, yet some of these toys I've never heard of. That being said, spirograph has always been one of my favorites. I have one. I also had a View Master and would spend hours looking through it. I had a reel of Disneyland features. One of them showed a futuristic display at Disneyland that was sponsored by the aerospace plant, McDonnell Douglas. Interestingly, I married a rocket scientist whose first job after college was McDonnell Douglas. MD is no longer, and that display is no longer at Disneyland. I have a 36 year old daughter whose favorite toy was, and still is, Hungry Hungry Hippos.
Are you talking about the Disneyland ride into the atoms and molecules? I went to Disneyland as a kid once when they had the tickets per ride, but that one was free and so cool.. It's been long gone.
I remember Tinker Toys, wooden blocks, die cast hot wheels cars, coloring books, battleship, Chinese Checkers and a board game called Mouse Trap, and a lot of Barbie Dolls.
I was very careful: Easy-Bake Oven, Turquoise. I also had a baton, a "Lite Brite" , a Horseman baby doll, a Pogo Stick, we had "Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, and yes, "View Master" and reels.
In 1971 I asked for a Raggedy Ann for Christmas. I got her and I still have her to this day. My aunt made her. I became a diabetic a month later at the age of 6. She helped me get through a very scary time.
My grandmother wanted to get me one when I was born in 1979 but couldn't find one. Instead I got a cloth doll with my name on her apron. For years I'd look for a Raggedy Ann, but they were always too expensive in antique stores. Finally in my late 30s, I was going to buy an ornament version in a thrift store when I turn around and there's a hand made Raggedy Ann for 10 dollars. You bet she can't home with me.
Oh my gosh! This was the best! It brought back so many great memories. I hadn’t thought about some of these in such a long time! The handheld games, the Caleco race car game, and I want my baby come back doll again! Thank you for this!
I loved the sun catchers for kids . You would buy the outline of choice my favorite Strawberry Shortcake and fill it in with the colored granules then bake them. The good old days !
IHey remember Dapper Dan, helped with learning button, zipper, snaps too, would like to see all my toy's again,for 0:00 child hood good memories,we lost our toy's when our parent got sick.Sand toy's for beach fun too 🌸
Litebrite was my favorite. For one thing, I actually had one. I did not usually get what I asked for and if I did get a toy, it was a hand me down. I did get a Lite asBrite and it was new, in the box, and I loved it as much as I thought I would. I had some spirographs too, I liked using those with colored pencils, for some reason they put my mother in a bad mood. I think she tossed them.
Lite Brite and Kaleidoscopes were always fun for the creative designs you could come up with. I also had the FP medical kit, Hungry Hungry Hippos, the Evel Knievel stunt cycle, Viewmaster, Spirograph and FP Little People from this video. Honorary mention should also go to Shogun Warriors, Star Wars, MEGO superhero and villain action figures, Wonderful Waterful hand-held games, the Six Million Dollar Man action figure, Remco's Energized Spider Man, Colorforms, and Whitman jigsaw puzzles.
I have a Gumby and Pokey! When I travel, my husband often sneaks them into my suitcase so I'm not alone 😅 Sometimes we hide them on each other and they pop up in coffee mugs, sock drawers, etc. Guess we never grew up 😂
@@flowerfaeri So what's wrong with not wanting to grow up and wanting to have some fun? You both are kids at ❤. Life can get so serious sometimes. So why not have some fun once and a while? 😉🤭☺️
the weebles wobble for like my all-time favorite, besides hungry hungry hippos. Watching this is like take me back to when I was a young kid again and I'm loving it
Have always, and will always, say that Weebles were the best toy ever created. They were my favorite toy as a child. My granddaughter has them now, but they aren’t the same. And I could spend hours on my lite bright. Childhood then was awesome.
Born in 1974 and I think I've played with all of these. I think my favorite was the Lite Brite, but I think I developed my anxiety from Perfection and Simon. Loved the JC Penney's and Sears Christmas catalog, Silly Putty, and the Easy Bake Oven. Ohhh, the memories!
Etch-a-sketch, Easy-Bake Oven, Operation, Rock'em Sock'em Robots, Pick-up Sticks, Jacks (with metal jacks and good balls), Pet Rocks (well, kinda), Doll Houses and their furniture and people (and sometimes electricity), Chemistry sets, Barbie dolls (not me, though). Also, non-toys: dress-up, bike riding, skateboard riding, climbing trees and hills/cliffs (without handles and a soft mat).
We had some of these in the 80's, - Hungry, Hungry Hippos, Veiwfinder... My great Aunt had weebles at her house, and the little people - I remember a mini bus that had six characters and a yellow one where the door opened. Some of these I forgot existed until I watched this video.
Aww.....I miss all these toys from my childhood. I like how you explained how these toys educated/ helped children. Ohhhh, how I wish we'd saved my baby brother's Fisher Price McDonalds, school, and auto garage! I also loved my brother's GI Joe and 6 Million Dollar Man dolls---I made them make out with my Barbies.
Im 32. I had half of these toys n loved em in the 90s. ❤ My parents and grandparents made sure me and my sisters knew the fun of older games/toys. Even music. Shows. Ect
Wow take me back memories,, the first 5 they shown I had.. Weebles Wobble and the Little people I had as a toddler they were the best. but I had most of the toy in this not all. man them were the days.
A great wind blew across the open field. All the cows fell down. One cow looked at the bull and asked why he didn't fall down? He simply answered...We bulls wobble...but we don't fall down!
Anyone remember Hot Potato? You set timer and threw to each until buzzer went off? I had one...funny thing is that it was made of plastic and really hard! If you didnt grab right it hurt! Lolol
I remember having every single one of these at some point when I was a kid and I loved them. In the early 90's my husband finally talked me into letting our sons get Crash Test Dummies...can you imagine?? Toys were so much better in my childhood 🙂
00:45 I think that's a very young Ricky Schroeder! 08:10 I think that's Jason Alexander. Baby Come Back looks a bit like Bindi Irwin when she was a kid. I had a lot of these toys. This really took me back! Thanks for the lovely trip down memory lane!💜💜💜
I got a Hot Wheels Picture Maker for Christmas 1970 and still have it. My twin sister got the Barbie version. I still love cars and she still loves fashion.
Mostly early 80's for me (memory wise) Super Spirograph (quietly played with it early morning while house was still asleep), Little People, View-Master (red one with blue one's nob and my mom's older one that needed batteries to light up and could project), Tomy Pocket Games, Lite Brite my brother and I had to share (switching off bedrooms), Kaleidoscope, Super Perfection, Hungry Hungry Hippos we got for Christmas and had to play in the basement as it was too loud for mom.
Big yellow metal Tonka trucks in a sandbox or back yard was great! Barrel of monkeys and plastic pickup sticks was always fun. Really liked my cowboys and Indians plastic soldier sets. Not action figures just molded plastic figures and you got different backgrounds and or accessories with them. Speaking of cowboys let’s not forget cap guns that looked like real firearms and shot caps and could smell the gunpowder and see the smoke.
I remember one boy said he was gonna shoot me with his cap gun in 4th grade, 😂. I had a blue one, and I remember the strips you inserted. I do think they had to make them in colors other than black so they couldn’t be mistaken for the real thing.
yessss a sandbox is a magical thing for kids. We destroyed many HotWheels cars getting sand jammed in them. And plastic animals were cool in sandboxes too. cap guns! We liked just smashing the caps with rocks on the sidewalk.
Grew up in the early 2000s and had most of these! Some that were still being made at that time but the others from either my older siblings or parents. They were my favorites! 🤗
14:30 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣what was her name again ? Thanks for making my day😆😆inspiring young women that if you try hard enough many years later a computer will mispronounce your name . Apologies to Lindsay Wagner you still are an inspiration and the character Jamie Sommers 🙂
@@grannyweatherwax8005 My dad was a member of her fan club throughout the 70's and 80's. He supposedly wrote her a letter to tell her about my sisters, but she never responded. Oh well!
Which Toy from the 1970s brings back the best memories?
I used to like Mr. Mouth...he looked like Pac-Man and you had to try and flip chips into his mouth while he spun around, chomping!
Fisher Price toys, in general!
Half of these. And I was born in the 90s!
Gnip Gnop
I liked the commercial for hungry hungry hippos more than the game itself 😊
Another fun toy were the bubble toys. Had water in them and you pressed a button that sent bubbles to move rings to land on hooks at various levels. Thank you for memories.
The Wonderful Waterfuls, one of many great memories from Tomy.
Those are still around!
@@cherylcobern4483
Are they really? I loved those and would like to get one or 2! They were so much fun. 😄
it didn't send bubbles, it sent a water jet to move the rings
Real Lincoln Logs, Tinkertoys, Legos, Chrissy, Cinnamon and Velvet dolls with adjustable hair, Mr. Potato Head, Dawn dolls, Spirograph, LiteBrite, Perfection, Fisher-Price Garage and Village....so fun.
And a Sears Christmas catalog.
Mr. Potato Head was way more popular than some of the ones included in the video.
You just described my childhood to a T.Okay,not the dolls,but still...
The catalog was my favourite toy. I'd cut out paper dolls and furniture and clothes 😄
Man, our neighbors 2 girls and me and my 2 sisters used to play dolls together, we all brought our dolls to their house and traded, there were actual FIGHTS over Baby Chrissy!

We only got one thing but it was a very wanted item and we were all happy. 👍🏻 🎄
Spirographs are still available and kids today love them as much as we did back in the day.
So are weebles.
I loved the music in the ads for Spirograph!
@@soniamo4139weebles are now larger so kids won't try swallowing them
But they have eliminated the pins 📌 to hold down the outer rings. I guess too many stabbers
Just never leave them out in the Florida sun, they warp.
All those toys helped the minds of children!! Build creativity in a good way!!
Spirogragh inspired me to become an artist
@@ericrivera8410 I loved that and had so much fun with it!!
Is that why old people are so dumb because of silly toys?
Remember the scent of Silly Putty, and pressing against the comic strips in the Sunday funny papers?
I just bought some silly putty. It turns it's a great mask for airbrushing.
Oh yes. I remember that well.
❤️ I do.
Yeah I also remember how dirty it ended up afterward, you could only do that so many times..😂😂😂
They’ve changed the ink, so even if you still take a paper it won’t work.
WOW Very nostalgic !!! I have experienced most of the games listed here when I was a child. I also remember "Mouse Trap", "Jaws" "Smash up Derby" "Stretch Armstrong" "Meccano" "Lego" "Fisher Price record player" and many others. Thank for sharing these memories
I forgot about Jaws! That was great. I had the record player too!
What about Green ghost
Ohhh, I loved playing with my Jaws. These videos bring back so many memories; I can't help but smile and giggle a little.
Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots, Operation, Don't Break The Ice, Electronic Battleship, Nerf Footballs, Clackers, Etch a Sketch, Sea Monkey's, and who could forget all those great toys at the bottom of a box of Cracker Jacks?
Barrel of Monkeys
Cracker Jack's sticker prizes was a big disappointment. Sad, lol.
Tattoo were the best prize
My niece had a Hungry Hungry Hippos game I had fun playing that game with her. And Jamie Sommers was NOT called Hymie. That's a boys name.
Ah Sea Monkeys, what a huge disappointment those were....
Paper dolls, The Dating Game, Easy Bake Oven and Barbie Dolls. We enjoyed fun things like roller skating outside, big wheels..and climbing trees..
One of the characters from “ the dating game “ Arron, is now a gastroenterologist. I work with him 😂
.. neighborhood kickball or hide-n-go seek!
Chinese jump rope , hula hoop , hopscotch, portable record player,,
free spirit brand 10 speed bike with the curved handle bars ,
baby alive dolls holly hobbie dolls,
magic 8 ball,
first addition of hello kitty items, slinky, shrinky dinks ,
barrel of monkeys, Atari ( pac man, frogger, donkey kong , tetris)
star wars action figures. Pet rocks, rubiks cube, slime and silly string
I also would like to add to my list
troll dolls , Ramona and Beatrice books , nancy drew books , and little house on the prairie book set . Barbie camper, and barbie airline hostess with barbies own airlines and a game of jacks was always fun to play and so was the game trouble. And my subscription of highlights magazines , and ordering books and cute animal posters from our schools monthly scholastics book fair
Ahaaaaa, Fisher Price was a big part of my childhood.
My favorite toy was and will always be Family Tree House from 1975.
Mine also and the shoe house too
I remember going to my grandparents house me and my brothers will run straight to our uncles room to play with the Evel Knievel stunt toy.
Oh lord, Perfection. That game was far more stressful than it should have been. And yet I loved it. Miss the the old Little People designs. One of my favorite sets was a car and camper that had a motorcycle too. The camper folded out with a cloth top.
Thanks for watching @coyoteartist !
I still have my old Perfection game in a closet somewhere...!!
@@ceewood3358 My grandparents had one and I always stupidly gave in and tried it and then regretted it. Repeatedly.
I remember the little people I had the jeep and camper and motorcycle and also the view finder as well and i actually think I still have them well I should say if there still there in my mom and dad house in the attic and the car crash station can't remember when it came out
@@addamsaddams4461 Yup! We had the Little People barn, still made of the original particle board/wood, that lasted forever: no plastic!
Loved my Spirograph, Hot Wheels, Matchbox Cars, Legos, Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs, Big Wheel, Schwinn 5-speed bike with banana seat, GAF Viewmaster, Lite Brite, Tyco remote control cars and race track, Lionel electric trains, Mousetrap, kaleidoscopes, Play Doh, Slinky, Duncan yo yo’s, and Fisher Price Farm, School House and Airport, coloring books, paint by number sets, Sanford fruit scented colored markers, tempura paints, Crayola jumbo box of crayons with built in sharpener!
Yes! No cell phones or computers. We actually played! I had them too. Great memories ❤
“Weebles wooble but they don’t fall down” lol. I remember them well.
My sisters had the Mickey Mouse club Weeble Wobbles.
We had a few of the Weebles sets, loved them so much! We had very few toys when we were kids, being fairly poor but weebles and Fisher Price family sets (school house, farm etc…) were toys my parents got us for Christmas and Birthdays (along with tinker toys and Lincoln Logs).

First thing that came to my brain😂😂😂😂
They hurt when an older sibling threw them at you like a fastball.
I had the Weebles treehouse. One of my favorite toy when I was a kid.
I still have spirograph, Lite Brite, the original and the cube, kaleidoscopes, and hungry hungry hippo.
Shrinky Dinks! Not really a toy but they were a lot of fun to do. My aunt always helped because of the oven. And Perfection is just anxiety.
My sister got shrinky dinks. One year she got Popeye glitter cards and I got a circus color book with a huge box of water colors.
My mom was the best. She always had the best presents under the tree.
We NEVER got a toy or gift just for going to the store with mom.
Actually, we NEVER went to a store with mom. Now, I go to dollar store with my granddaughter and am guilty of usually letting her get something. It's best not to take kids to these Mish mash of everything stores.
I just got the stuff to make shrinky dinks with my youngest.
I just got the stuff to make Shrinky Dinks with my daughter
Shrinky Dinks were so great. Made one for my grandma to put on her kitchen window sill.
perfection teaches you to stay cool under pressure and developes hand/eye coordination.
What about "Colorforms"?! With their distinct aroma and sticky "magic" shapes?
Just READING your comment: *_I could smell them!!_*
I've read long ago that smells evoke memories the easiest of all the senses after sight...
@@hereticpariah6_66 And what about Play Doh??
@@ferociousgumby 😂 lol!my mom MADE her own version for us, but I preferred Kleen Klay: a petroleum based modeling clay that didn't dry out as i was the sculptor of the family. I would recognize Kleen Klay by its smell, if they still make it..

I remember Tinker Toys, wooden blocks, die cast hot wheels cars, coloring books, battleship, Chinese Checkers and a board game called Mouse Trap, and a lot of Barbie Dolls.
Coloring books are still very popular. My older niece loves to color. IDK about her sister because she's never colored in front of me.
I knew and played with most of these toys. Boy, a lot of fun. Better than being on the cell phone all day😊
Back when fun rattled. I played with almost all of these classics. I suppose, from this list, my favorite was Lite Brite.
mesmerizing, those pretty colours all lit up 🤩
I had Many of these toys when I was growing up!!

Baby come back yeah
I loved the sun catchers for kids . You would buy the outline of choice my favorite Strawberry Shortcake and fill it in with the colored granules then bake them. The good old days !
Operation, rock em sockem robots, sit and spin. this was all a fun blast from the past
That Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle is one of my very earliest toy memories. I got it for Christmas in ~1980 when I was still a kid. Brilliant little toy.
And The Green Machine.
Oh wow I used to have this school house and the little people and that little dog and I have the weebles too!
The Little People are still around. The shapes are different, but still there
Like Weebles, deemed too small if a baby sibling should get a hold of one, so they made them larger and less stylized.
Probably called the alphabet people now!
Loved my spirograph and light bright
So how many kids ate the pieces 😂 ?
@pam8962
Me too and such wonderful memories I have. Those were some great toys! 😊
Me too. I have great memories playing lite brite with my mom
Lite Brite delighted my autistic heart in 1974. And I still have a couple of those kaleidoscopes
G.I. Joes, Hot Wheels, and the half-size G.I. Joe copies called Tigers were my favorites.
Man, I loved my Weebles. 😢
I will never forget opening my Weebles Treehouse Christmas morning. 😍

I liked the square metal potholder maker myself😊
80's kids had these too! I had SO many of these!
That Six Million Dollar Man doll was amazing too! You could open his leg and look through his eye...
I had the bionic woman doll & my brother had him & his rocket.

Smash up derby and all the cars that used the T STRAP ...LOVED THEM ALL
I LOVED my Fisher Price sets (house, school, farm, garage,…) and wish I still had all of my originals

The handheld battery powered football and baseball games were pretty awesome back then.
I had a lot of these games and toys as a kid wish I still did so I could show my grandkids and let them play with them and see their reactions.
I had a Fischer price bus with little people back in 1962. I used to use the bus as a barbies bathtub in which her clothes were the bubble bath.
Ha ha that sounds like something I would have done. I loved Barbies!
So many memories. View master was awesome
Yeah, the '70s were a time when you'd use your own imagination instead of someone else's.
FACTS........😁
"Don't Spill The Beans" , "Kerplunk", "Mousetrap", "Don't Break The Ice", "Don't Wake Daddy", "Rock 'em, Sock 'em Robots"
Wow take me back memories,, the first 5 they shown I had.. Weebles Wobble and the Little people I had as a toddler they were the best. but I had most of the toy in this not all. man them were the days.
I had the Wibbles treehouse! Absolutely loved it
I had the Haunted Mansion, with secret passages, spooky mirrors, and trap doors.
@@teptime at that time I would've been green with envy!
Me too! It made my Christmas that year. Good old Santa…
MAGIC ROCKS ...lots of fun
A great wind blew across the open field. All the cows fell down. One cow looked at the bull and asked why he didn't fall down? He simply answered...We bulls wobble...but we don't fall down!
I heard that joke as a young teen!!!
Never heard this but lmao, thanks!
😂😂😂😂😂
Awesome 😂
😂
Anyone remember Hot Potato? You set timer and threw to each until buzzer went off? I had one...funny thing is that it was made of plastic and really hard! If you didnt grab right it hurt! Lolol
Sounds like another version of "Keep Away". That game was also played with a toy called Time bomb.
And perfection that was a nail biter game
We had a bomb too where you set the timer and throw it back and forth, hoping it didn’t go off
I remember having every single one of these at some point when I was a kid and I loved them. In the early 90's my husband finally talked me into letting our sons get Crash Test Dummies...can you imagine?? Toys were so much better in my childhood 🙂
00:45 I think that's a very young Ricky Schroeder!
08:10 I think that's Jason Alexander.
Baby Come Back looks a bit like Bindi Irwin when she was a kid.
I had a lot of these toys. This really took me back! Thanks for the lovely trip down memory lane!💜💜💜
What hasn’t been “overshadowed by the digital age”? We that grew up pre-internet are fortunate in many ways!
70s was a great time to grow up as a child, graduated HS in 81!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I got a Hot Wheels Picture Maker for Christmas 1970 and still have it. My twin sister got the Barbie version. I still love cars and she still loves fashion.
Had most of these, but the pocket games really hit me hard in the nostalgia.
They were perfect for long car rides.
I LOVED LOVED LOVED my weeble wabbles, I loved my lite Brite and to this day I still love perfection!
Therapist: it seems your anxiety stems from the perfection game as a child...
🤣
SADISTIC!
@ahill4642 it's why I fear opening crescent roll or biscuit cannister to this day...lol
Oh we had a few crazy games that would scare you! Pick up sticks (I’d always get down to the lady 2 sticks and screw it all up.🤬
*last
Not Operation??? 😂
Mostly early 80's for me (memory wise) Super Spirograph (quietly played with it early morning while house was still asleep), Little People, View-Master (red one with blue one's nob and my mom's older one that needed batteries to light up and could project), Tomy Pocket Games, Lite Brite my brother and I had to share (switching off bedrooms), Kaleidoscope, Super Perfection, Hungry Hungry Hippos we got for Christmas and had to play in the basement as it was too loud for mom.
Big yellow metal Tonka trucks in a sandbox or back yard was great! Barrel of monkeys and plastic pickup sticks was always fun. Really liked my cowboys and Indians plastic soldier sets. Not action figures just molded plastic figures and you got different backgrounds and or accessories with them. Speaking of cowboys let’s not forget cap guns that looked like real firearms and shot caps and could smell the gunpowder and see the smoke.
I remember one boy said he was gonna shoot me with his cap gun in 4th grade, 😂. I had a blue one, and I remember the strips you inserted. I do think they had to make them in colors other than black so they couldn’t be mistaken for the real thing.
yessss a sandbox is a magical thing for kids. We destroyed many HotWheels cars getting sand jammed in them. And plastic animals were cool in sandboxes too.
cap guns! We liked just smashing the caps with rocks on the sidewalk.
I remember!
Grew up in the early 2000s and had most of these! Some that were still being made at that time but the others from either my older siblings or parents. They were my favorites! 🤗
Enjoyed!
Great video! Brought back so many memories! Made me think of others. Gnip Gnop, riccochet racers,etc! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gnip Gnop. Ping pong spelled backwards.
@@zvbxGet Out! I never knew that! Thank you!😊
@@pinkarate1 Welcome
14:30 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣what was her name again ? Thanks for making my day😆😆inspiring young women that if you try hard enough many years later a computer will mispronounce your name . Apologies to Lindsay Wagner you still are an inspiration and the character Jamie Sommers 🙂
My dad was so obsessed with Bionic Woman that he named his two daughters (my younger half sisters) Jamie and Linzi (an unique way of spelling Lindsay)
@@marniebaker-winnick2296I bet Lindsey Wagner would love that!
@@grannyweatherwax8005 My dad was a member of her fan club throughout the 70's and 80's. He supposedly wrote her a letter to tell her about my sisters, but she never responded. Oh well!
Yes, those bionics were always letting her down. Couldn't even remember her name in the end.
Lol I came looking for this…seriously wtf??😂
The Knit Magic hasn't really gone away. There is something very, very similar that is now used for wire weaving for jewelry making.
My sister had Chrissy & Velvet w/the hair. She also had Dressy Bessie & Dapper Dan
I had a Chrissy doll too!
Lol. My big sister had Chrissy and kept her perfect. I had Velvet and she was a mess. Mimicked our lives. Lol and sob sob
I had a Dapper Dan. That's how I learned to tie my shoes.
Just realized I had it pretty good. I had 15 of these.
I grew up in the early 00's I played with a good portion of these. My mom grew up in the 70's
I remember ever single toy shown... what a fun video 🙂
There were many I never saw before. I'm wondering if they were only popular in the very early 70s?
