What was your favourite toy when you were little?

Used to have loads of fun with Fisher Technik building all kinds of stuff.
My parents best friends used to have a toy-shop so I had tons of them.

About kids going outside and play ... some need a little incentive some don't.
My oldest will always go outside and do stuff in the garden or the surrounding fields and roads. My youngest is a rather lazy one ... she always wants to look tv, play on her DS or other shit as long as she doesn't get herself tired ;)

It's up to the parents to tell these children to go and play outside regularly when the weather allows it. If you never motivate them to go outside and play with them or ride bycicle they will always remain inside.

When I was a nipper I had a collection of empty tins of this which kept me amused for hours (counting them I expect :dabs: )

I really wanted one of these

I learned at an early age that Santa was a git.

Maybe your kids do. Mine go out and play football, jump about on the trampoline, just generally fuck about like weans are supposed to. They have fun, skin their knees, fall out with their pals. Go and play with them five minutes later.

Basically they are wee pests, it's their job for fuck sake.

Maybe you should look at yourself, rather than the weans.

Ya, that's pretty much how it was when I was a kid and same for all my friends.
The video games and tv watching were reserved for night time use or when friends were all busy. :idunno:

My favorite toys were:
Attachment 5852
Attachment 5853
Attachment 5854
lego, sega genesis, nintendo, etc.
etc.

when i was little, my favorite toy was "Tinker Toys". lol anyone remember those? :P

GI Joe but not the lil ones they sell today .

I also had these two little bunnies made of plastic that lit up in the dark. I had hours of fun with them under the blankets.

I just realised how the above sounds :pinch:

:lol:

Naughty, naughty skweeks. :smilie4:
