🎅 what was the most popular toy during your childhood??🎅
Let us know, maybe santa will bring back a little festive spirit in you ❤
@Tinywhisper11
So many, barbie, cars, dolls, stuffed toys, kitchen play sets etc!😮
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou I bet you wish you still had the imagination of a child to play like you used to ❤ what was your favourite??
@Tinywhisper11
Hehe for sure, Lolabeanieee.💖
I didn't play too much, enjoyed collecting more lol.😅
What's a toy you would enjoy playing with?🤗
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou omg these were amazing. In addicition, every Christmas season, the toy store chain made a catalogue and we always marked in it the things we want 😁 we obviously marked half of the catalogue, but it gave our parents a good understanding of what we want and they could pick something out. We also always wrote a wishlist 😂
I always loved kitchen toys, my dad even made me a stove out of cardboard when I was a child. And well, I was a big bookworm, and loved creative stuff
@Tinywhisper11
All of them. I was smart enough to make sure every single toy I owned was a popular one. Popular to others but most importantly popular for me since I’d be the one to play with them everyday :)
@akunknown ❤ sounds like you were a bit spoilt🙂 and for that I'm glad ❤❤ did you keep any of your old toys??
@Tinywhisper11
I wouldn’t call it being “a bit spoiled” since I had to earn all those toys (bday gifts and Christmas presents being the only exceptions lol) by being a good student in school, good at home, good in public, if I was bad anytime it’d be noted so if I was bad 5x I’d lose 5 toys bc they wouldn’t be bought for me by anyone but bc I wasn’t bad I always got the toys I wanted unless they were too expensive lol.
One of the times this happened that I actually remember was when we were at that old Toys R Us store and as I was picking which toy I wanted (I wanted both but was told get one now and next time get the other one but I wanted both bc I was afraid next time I came the other one wouldn’t be there anymore lol) I saw the Batmobile (Batman’s car from the 1989 movie) and pointed at it with excitement!!! My brother knew it wasn’t real. It was just an inflatable version of it but to a child like me it was real and drivable haha! So that’s what I wanted. But they were just displays, not for sale. But bc I was just a kid I didn’t know or understand that. I just knew I saw it and wanted it!!
@akunknown awwww, it sounds like you had a great childhood ❤ I bet you were a cute kid ❤❤ do you go to family houses for xmas this year??
@Tinywhisper11
No. Everyone has their own agenda this year and I think I need a break from everyone so it all works out as a win for everyone so I encouraged them all to go ahead with whatever they wanted.
@Tinywhisper11
Unfortunately no I didn’t get to keep any of them. As much as I wanted to and tried my best to keep them all, my sister felt I was too old for toys and threw them out. Omg I was so angry at her for that. But now everytime it’s mentioned - even if it’s jokingly - she apologizes so sounds like she regrets it now looking back on it even though I already forgave her and let it go
@akunknown your very lucky to have a family ❤ and having a nice family seems rare thread days ❤ hold on to every precious memory ❤
@Tinywhisper11
“your very lucky to have a family ❤”
I used to believe that as a child but once I found out what type of person my mom really was I realized I wasn’t as lucky as I thought in terms of the family I have.
“and having a nice family seems rare thread days❤”
I felt like it was always rare tbh but maybe, just maybe, more so now. But idk.
”hold on to every precious memory ❤”
I always do :)
@akunknown I never had any family, so I only learn what it's like through people's threads here! We'll except my 8 cups family ❤❤
@Tinywhisper11
Well I’m happy for you now having a family. But more importantly, a kind family. Not a toxic or abusive one.
Depending on who you (you in this case meaning anyone) talk to or ask, you’ll probably get different answers/responses on the subject of having a family. Some people might say they hear you on always wanting a family. Others who’ve had bad family experiences may simply tell you to count your blessings.
Hess truck
@creativeStrings1531 well I know it's a toy truck but I'm don't know what a hess truck is, I'll have to look it up ❤ I hope you and your partner have a great xmas ❤

@creativeStrings1531
omg I remember that gas station! My dad used to get me Hess toys every year as a Christmas gift. I remember the truck, helicopter, and all the others. I loved them as a kid.
