What was your favourite toy as a kid ?

[pericat]

Or maybe now - I'm not judging - mine was plastercine (spelling?)

Hi pericat , nice to meet you , :-)
Indoors , compendium of games , or a jig-saw
Outdoors , roller skates , or skipping rope
Always had a piece of chalk or a certain type of stone to score out grids on the pavement too.

A wooden fort my dad made for me himself. I was never a girly girl and didn't want a dolls house like my three sisters so he built it for me and bought me all the plastic cowboys and indians. Bless him.

Hi bigmamma - same to you - yeh I loved hopscotch - can you still get shoe polish tons?

[Sachs]

I loved plastercine as well and my pippa doll who I gave a really bad haircut too

My farm definitely. I always had a new animal instead of sweets if I was good when we went to town.
Other than that, books! I was either behind the settee reading or if the weather was fine, up the apple tree reading! lol

[pericat]

I was more sindy than barbie too and I always wanted a dolls house

[bigmamma]

Hi Sachs , ooo , Cyndy doll , I had one of those , is that the one whose hair was able to be long or short through a hole in her head ?
I had sisters Jan , but was , in age , between two brothers so there were always a lot of " boys toys " around to play with too . :-)

Not sure about the hole in the head hair length thing mamma! lol! I do remember some doll that did that but I can't remember which one! My Sindy doll was circa 1970s

The doll that 'grew' her hair was Tressie 'her hair grows'!
