As part of my ongoing series of reviews of WHAM-O products to help celebrate WHAM-O’s 60th anniversary, today I am reviewing a classic toy - the WHAM-O Original SuperBall.
I remember playing with SuperBalls as a child, and WHAM-O’s Original SuperBall works just as well (if not better) than I remembered. With 50,000 lbs. of […]
Get out your old joysticks and prepare for a game of Pong, Combat, Breakout or any of those video games we loved as kids. An Atari movie is coming!
No word on when the movie, based on the life of Atari founder and video game industry pioneer Nolan Bushnell, will be released, but Leonardo DiCaprio […]
LEGOs are one of those toys I’ve never really loved. Even as a kid, I wanted to like them, but they just didn’t hold my interest. These days, I have issues about the pieces being too small in some of the LEGO playsets, but I’ll save that complaint for another post. For now, I want […]
TheGrandParentZone.com announces its launch of a new website featuring American Made toys.
“This unique website was the brainchild of baby boomers Fred and Betsy Arnow, who wanted to create a website with the best children’s books, wood toys, and equipment they used most when their now grown-up kids were infants, toddlers, and children.”
Many of the items […]
I used to have one of these toys and I loved it! It’s a Classic Tin Kaleidoscope and one of those toys that never seems to go out of style. What kid doesn’t like a kaleidoscope?
I love it when my kids discover a toy that I played with as a child. There are a few […]
I don’t think I had a Care Bear as a child, but I sure do remember them. Maybe I just wasn’t into bears, I don’t know.
This is just another one of those toys that was around when I was a kid and has never left. Well, maybe they left for a little while but they […]
I absolutely loved the game Hungry Hungry Hippos as a child. I loved it so much, I would often play it by myself. Okay, maybe that was too much information to share with you, lol!
I’m not exactly sure what it is that draws me to this game, but remembering it today makes me want to […]
One year for my daughter’s birthday, we did a Nostalgia toy theme. My husband and I remembered how much fun we had with these toys and we knew that she would love them too.
Besides, all the toys and characters I played with and loved are back. It’s amazing! I think my kids are getting tired […]
Connect Four was one of my favorite games ever when I was younger. It was always the most popular game for indoor recess on rainy or snowy days. I think I liked it best because the kid I happened to have a crush on also liked the game. I remember […]
The first SLINKY I remember being in our home was a big, dual-colored (yellow and orange) plastic one that my sister had. I think that was the first plastic Slinky I’d ever seen. We found out that you could sit in the back of our vehicle and peg the person in the front […]
