Our childhood toys

My kids were terrified of Santa in department stores, they found him really scary!

Some children did .

I wasn't. I didn't want to upset him in any possible way, in case he didn't come down my chimney, or heavens forbid, didn't give me the present that I had queued so patiently for. I was convinced that he would give the best presents, to the kids who were the best behaved and it wasn't a risk worth taking back then, for me to play up. I got a red space gun once, it certainly worked that time.

not exactly a toy but the other week my grandaughter 4 in january came round with a box of coloured chalks and asked if she could use my slabs out back to draw on them...of course i said yes and straight away i was transported back to the days when i used to mark out hop scotch on the pavements...cost us nothing but we had hours of fun..
