    Oh wow I forgot about Viewmasters! Those were so great!

    I don't really remember much of what I played with when I was young, but I remember loving Lincoln Logs, Barbies and playing Duck Hunt on Nintendo when my brothers let me.

    I'd have to say for me my favorite toys were barbies, my cabbage patch dolls, pogs and my Gameboy.

    Probably Barbies, although most of what I had were actually the Disney dolls (not too many traditional Barbies). I loved "making" homes for them out of random furniture/windowsills and simple DIY clothes (i.e. cut 3 holes in a piece of fabric and tie around her waist). I also had some American Girl dolls, which I know I carefully put away and am excited to be able to pass down. When I was really little I also loved my Matchbox cars.

    Puppy Surprise! I was so excited when I saw they brought it back. I bought one for my kiddos, but they weren't as enthused.

    @ramfam2507 yes to the tamagotchi! I almost bought one for myself when they came out again.

    Barbies, beanie babies and the tamagotchi. Around 5 or 6 I loved my little karaoke machine that recorded.

    Haha @disgruntled_pelican my sister had a puppies surprise! She asked for it for months and got it for Christmas. 

    We had a lot of outdoor toys, so skates, bicycles, jump ropes, swingset. 

    I remember playing with my stuffed animals and barbies so they were well played. But it was the Baby Alive and the Easy Bake that I remember begging for months for.

    I wasn’t a huge toy person, but we got a smallish tumbling mat that my sister and I used the sh!t out of. During the summers we would spend alllllll the time out in our pool. Sure wish I had a pool this summer!
