These were my 2 favorites as a kid

On days when I didn't visit my cousins bakery, I liked playing with this,

OOOH!
I loved my:
Lincoln logs
Girder and panel set
Mousetrap game
matchbox cars

and the best of all were all sorts of little plastic animals -I had in several coffee cans full of them. I had hundreds of them and would play with them for HOURS.

I also loved my Jane West doll and would make her do "things" (insert eyebrow waggle) to my sister's Barbies and my Lone Ranger doll (the pervieness arrived early)

Wow, a girder and panel set! Those are kind of rare. I had one once in my shop and I thought it was the coolest thing.

Adventure books! Those were my toys pretty much. And trees, big, giant climbing trees where one could get away from it all.

I don't remember many toys while living at Mom's; mostly I played on the farm (with tonka trucks & toy cars, a fishing pole or what ever was available to make mud pies) or on a trail in the mountains there.
But I fondly recall a couple toys that my Great Gramma ("lil Gma") gave me to quietly entertain myself while at church or when she had company....

With all I've been through or lost all these many years.... I still have these. I adored that woman.... her house was filled with many fascinating things and books that would take our imagination to all corners of the world.... but every time I hold these trinkets, I still feel her love and attention she gave me.
