I love hearing all these stories. I can really relate to many of them. My how times have changed. Back when I was a child there was no color tv, no computers or internet, no electronic games. I was a tomboy, I did not like dolls but I did have one favorite doll and she was just a plain rubber doll with rubber hair. Some of my favorite things to play with when I was in elementary school was the Breyer horses, hula hoops, jacks, pick-up sticks, the little wooden windup rubber band airplanes and glider planes. Of course our whole family would play monopoly. We played a lot of games outside, hopscotch, Simon Says, tag, hide and seek. I just don't see kids today doing all the things we did. It seems that kids just grow up too fast now days. |
