The TRUE cool Toys!

Posted July 15, 2007 at 7:43PM by LatteMommy

Well tonight DH found a box that his Mother gave to him a while back that she saved all these years from HIS childhood.  It is full of the REAL matchbox cars (diecast metal ones).  He is showing them to DD tonight and she is just loving it.  Boy looking at them it brings me back to when my brother (old than I) and I used to play with matchbox's out in the sand pit at our house.  Do you all remember some of the GREAT matchbox's they used to give away with Happy Meal's?  He has a bunch of them.  Then he found one that is a TRUE Transformer that also came in a Happy Meal.  What a memory trip.

Do you have any toys that bring back memorable moments for you?

I have all my old matchbox cars from when I was little. I also have my old Fisher Price farm and school house from back when Fisher price was still mostly wood with just the people being plastic. My kids now play with all these toys that were once mine. I love it. I also have my first wooden blocks that had letters on them. I am so glad my mom saved all this stuff. I make sure now that I don't give or sell all my kid's stuff as soon as they outgrow it. I am going to make sure I keep a stash so I can pass it back down to them.

  I love my job, it gives me a break from my kids!

My Mom saved a pull toy of mine, and I remember it. It's so neat to see your kids play with toys that belonged to you. It makes me think my childhood wasn't that far off.

  Life is crazy but wonderful.

I loved my little pony when I was a kid and was thrilled when they came back out and my daughter also loved them, same with my cabbage patch doll, my mom still has mine which is the original and my daughter has her own, but they still smell the same and it makes me remember playing with mine. And strawberry shortcake, I tried to get my daughter to play with her but she wasn't interested, again I love the smell, brings back a lot of memories.
