Pad Patter: 2/21 - What was your favorite toy as a child?

That is a BEAUTIFUL Barbie doll!

I had three dolls I loved - one was soft bodied, one was plastic bodied like an ag doll (Sasha) and the third was a handmade doll with a painted face, made by my Grandma to look like me. (Red hair and green eyes) we moved a lot when I was a child (almost every year) but my dolls always made the cut

 

I had a Barbie too when I was a kid and it was my favorite! It's just a cheap model and not a limited edition, and I called her Wendy. I played with her so much that her head became loose and she became headless after a few years LOL.

 

Oh this is a tough one! I had lots of faves at different ages - my Little Peoples, my Strawberry Shortcake dolls, my Cabbage Patch Dolls and then Barbies. My favorite Barbie was Jewel Secret Whitney.

Now my faves are my Funko Pop figures, Monster High and Legos. I just spent four days last week at Toy Fair New York. Who says toys are for kids???

 

I would have to say it was my Barbies and their cars and airplane! And dating myself with this one, but my Mrs. Beasley doll (from the late 60's/early 70's show Family Affair).

 

I was in LOVE with the original Fashion plates

My collection of Star Wars: Men and the vehicles then it would be my collection of Hot Wheels.

 

legos. def legos. as I got older, my original nintendo gameboy.

 

CARE BEARS by far!

 

I loved playing the game of Jacks. I would play for hours and could beat most of my friends. I'm going to do a page about that! Thx Dalis for the awesome page idea!

 

I had a doll I loved- Kulli, I scrapped her here:



Otherwise, my first love interests were all papery... I started writing a diary when I was eight, and had found my passion .

 

I wasn't much for dolls or barbies as a kid. We spent most of our time outside playing in the dirt and in our barn or catching frogs, etc. BUT, I think my favorite toy was this cool toy call a Weeble Wobble Kingdom. It was the coolest thing ever. I wish I still had it for my kids to play with.

Also, when I was inside I preferred my craft supplies and I also had fashion plates that I loved too!

 

I loved Barbies...but even more so, I LOVED (ok...still LOVE) LEGOS!!!! =) I wish they'd had the Lego friends and princess ones when I was a kid...but eh...just as fun now.

 

Geez, I dunno if I just wasn't that into toys, or didn't have any. I was more of an outside kid. Bike riding, digging, climbing trees, etc.
