Stuffies. I think the cat is from the 60's. The big bunny is made in Korea so it's vintage. The tag on the pink bunny says 1975. Paid 49 cents, 2 dollars and 25 cents. I never outgrew stuffed animals. Never liked dolls much.

How many of these did you break as a kid?

We didn't have silly putty to copy comic strips, but we did the same thing with wax paper.

Silly-putty....its invention was an accidental by-product of an attempt to manufacture synthetic rubber.

We gave our son an electronics kit when he was 10 or 11, he used it to listen in to his sisters conversations and he set up some sort of system so he would know if anyone had been in his room(usually me).

Our younger daughter was about 4 and the only thing she wanted for Christmas was

 

[mrstime]

Stilts!

We gave our oldest daughter a pr of stilts when she was 3 and 1/2 or 4, mistake she kept trying to climb cement steps. Took them away from her. Later when she was a bit older and we no longer lived with the cement stairs she became the envy of ever little boy in the neighborhood. She was 6 or 7 then.
