My absolute favorite toy when I was little was a farm set with a horse and other animals. I saw it in the Sears catalog and pleaded with my parents to buy it for me. Santa brought it for Christmas and I played with it for hours pretending that the horse was mine and I had a horse farm. I will always remember that toy and I did achieve my dream on a small scale.

I still have my favorite toy from when I was little.  It was a set of dolls made by Mattel called "The Sunshine Family.  The only thing I don't have is the dollhouse my father and grandfather made because my brother sat on it. :(

Growing up I didn't have alot of toys, but I remember playing with paper dolls, pickup sticks, and monkeys in a barrel. I guess alot of you probably don't have a clue about what I am talking about. I guess I am revealing my age,HA!HA!. My cousins and I used to spend hours cutting out the clothes that we would use to dress our paper dolls. There was another game we used to play with marbles. I am not able to remember the name but when I was growing up if you didn't have a bag of marbles then you were considered a no-body. Jacks was another one but most of us didn't have it because money was very tight when I was a small child. :heart:

The one toy I remember receiving and using for many years was my roller skates. This was about 35  years ago now. It was the type which went over the top of your shoes. The front leather was extendable by loosening the laces. The bottom of it was unscrewed and you then lengthened the roller skate as you got older.  I must've used those for 3 or 4 years. Goodness, my legs got scraped so badly I ended up with small pebbles stuck in my skin! Nice!

When I was growing up the nintendo 64 and gameboy video games were popular. I loved playing with them. I also liked pokemon but I wasn't allowed to play with them :(

That would probably be my small collection of Teenage Mutant Ninja toys. I had a regular Raphael, and multiple gimmick ones such as turtle trolls (tmnt + treasure trolls), and a rockstar Donatello. If I had those toys today, I probably could sell them. I also liked Lego.

My baseball, bat and glove. I was a tomboy and did not like to play dolls with my little sister. Besides she whined all the time. I also like my deck of cards. Grandpa taught me poker when i was little. He did not have anyone else to play with. Loved my grandpa. Miss him and grandma i could always go to them when i needed to talk about something. Thanksgiving was always one of their favorite holidays. and Christmas. Grandma had 10 kids so it was always a mad house with all of us rug rats.

i had a baby alive and puppy alive but somehow lost the puppy alive and lost the accessories to my baby alive. found the exact doll at a garage sale for like 75 cents with the bottle. i had to get it. i kept the bottle with my original doll and let my niece play with the one i got from the garage sale... which surprisingly was in better shape then mine.

I never really played with toys from what I remember.  I had a little stuffed dog that I slept with every night but that's was about it.  Normally I would draw or make something instead of playing with toys though I'm sure I did more playing when I was really young but I don't remember much of those years.

The first thing that probably comes up is the slinky and later on legos. If I still had them I probably won't trying out lego building again, but getting a new set nowadays is just too expensive.

I loved teddy bears.  I still do.  When I was 3 years old, I got a teddy bear from Santa Claus that was bigger than me and I named him Brownie.  Whenever I played house I always played with Brownie and all the other teddy bears that I had instead of dolls even though I had several dolls.  I am now middle aged and I still have Brownie.  He brings back many childhood memories. :)

As a kid of 6, 7 and 8, I had a red bicycle that I would ride to school and around town.  I loved it!  It was freedom on wheels to go wherever I wanted to go much faster than what I could go by foot.  I miss those carefree days of childhood!  I also enjoyed going fishing when I was a kid but would hardly consider a fishing pole a toy but it sure was fun!

Gosh, I don't know. I can't remember what all I played with. I do remember having a Lite Bright and Etch-A-Sketch. I really liked that Lite Bright! I also played with Tinkertoys, which were fun. I had Linkin Logs too. Lego's were definitely a favorite!
