What was your favorite toy growing up?
Seeing all of this fidgit spinner craze going on, let's talk about toys that we loved when we were growing up. 
Some of mine were:
Tinker Toys
Tonka trucks
Lincoln Logs (the all-wood sets, not the modern one with plastic bits included... )
Atari 2600 (and the Tandy TRS 80... my first "real" computer...  )

What was your favorite toy growing up?
I am a weirdo and loved things that weren't toys (besides riding my bike and tying my red wagon to my bike with a jump rope of course). Other favorites were an old office phone I would pretend to be a receptionist with, and a real cash register I would play store with. I also loved to play school. My grandma worked at the Board of Ed and would come home with outdated teacher's editions of books. I had a whole bookcase of them.

I don't know if it was my all time favorite, but something recently reminded me of ColorForms and I was thinking how much I liked those

Re: What was your favorite toy growing up?
I was obsessed with Polly Pockets, Care Bears, and My Little Pony. 
I also had this toy drive-thru McDonald stand and I loved it! Nostalgia hit me like a ton of bricks seeing this photo.

Re: What was your favorite toy growing up?
Dolls! I had SO MANY! My favorites were from Ashton-Drake, they were expensive but realistic looking. I also loved my Baby Feels So Real doll and Baby Shivers. And all my doll accessories: clothes, bottles, bibs, cradle, swing, stroller, diaper bag, etc. I had it all!
I was really into Beanie Babies too. I had a huge collection.
A PP mentioned Color Forms and that took me back. I totally forgot about them but I loved those as a kid!
Troll Dolls
Puppy Surprise
Pillow Pals
Lisa Frank Sticker Books (not really a toy but worth mentioning)
