What is your favorite childhood toy?

I took this doll everywhere I went, dragging her along with one arm.
I played with her so much, the voice box stopped working and I still loved her as much.

I just bought this for my grandson's fifth birthday.
I loved it when I was his age and am hoping he does as much.

Isn't that the Mrs. Beasley doll of Family Affair TV show fame?

Herdy gurdy and a rolly polly

I think it was my spring horse. I would put Wagon Train on and ride along with the cast. The older models didn't have stirrups so I took a short piece of rope and made loops on each end and threw it over the saddle area. Voila.....stirrups!
Oh and let's not forget my Ken doll which I still have. He got to make out with all my friends Barbies. My grandmother was so mad at me when I took $5 out of my Christmas money to buy him a tuxedo. Sorry Gram....clothes make the man.
