What toys did you play with as a child?

I like to given wooden toys to my GC. For my own children we had very little money so toys came from charity shops, jumble sales or made by DH and me. As a child I remember the outside toys being a pedal car, skipping rope, wooden hoop and stick, spinning top. Indoors I had dolls, a dolls house, jigsaws, colouring books and lot and lots of reading books - Ladybird series and Enid Blyton stories being favourites. My overall favourite for a long while was a large rocking horse but sadly he contracted woodworm over time and went to the knackers yard

My favourite toys were a post office set with teeny little stamps in it . A petite typewriter and a Tressy doll that had long hair and you pressed a button on her belly and the hair was retracted to make it short. She had tiny hair rollers and a brush .
My sons favourites were Action man , lego , scalextric , micro machines and the hand held games donkey kong etc. They hated the Hornby train set so cut the wires to stop it going round.

There weren't many toys in my young days . Only books, and there was a shortage of those too.
One of my clearest memories is moving into a flat (from MGP's house) at the end of WW2 and the last person had left a box of toys in my bedroom - great excitement.
For my own children, my boys' favourite 'toys' were small caskets filled with replica guns, different types.
Probably banned these days.
The girls had dolls, Tiny Tears etc.
