Ye Olde Toys (1)

 Time to take a walk down memory lane and recall a few toys from my childhood!



Kicking things off with this baby rattle, that had a mirror on the other side. I thought this was the lamest toy. Mom kept it around for all my sibling and I remember NONE of them being interested in it at all. Mind you, Mom and Dad saved this toys during the move, instead of every single action we had in the 80s. 

This toy mom still has TODAY at her house and the babies still love it. It spins and has 4 sides that consists of different activities babies can do. Even the horn button on the top of toy works today. I'm telling you, Fisher Price made toys to last forever back in the day!


 We had these connect links for some time too growing up. I'd idly sit around house plugging these in and out pulling them out when I was bored or watching something. We eventually lost or threw them all away in the end. My sibling tended to gnaw on the connectors and ruin them. 
What house in the 80s didn't have these? Snap them together to make a chain and impossible for any kid 6-36 months to pull apart. I believe they still make them today. I remember these got lost fast around the house. To my knowledge, they were already gone before we moved away. 

See you tomorrow with more!
