How about an EasyBake Oven, complete with one of those little pineapple upsidedown cakes, or a cupcake with colored sand frosting that glitters in the sun?

Or a Little Golden Book - The Pokey Little Puppy and The Little Engine That Could.

What was the name of that record player that played automatically when you set the needle down on the record?

How about a Sit 'n' Spin?

Or every kid's favorite toy: a cardboard box.


Okay, that was only a little bit of a joke, but how about a cardboard box made into a rocket ship? Or a TV studio. My daughter made one of those when she was about five. She put on a whole news broadcast, complete with weather graphics. It was so cute. I wish I'd filmed it.
