  • 1. GI Joe
  • 2. Transformers
  • 3. Lego
  • 4. Barbie
  • 5. View-Master
  • 6. Bicycle
  • 7. Cabbage Patch Kids
  • 8. Crayons
  • 9. Play-doh
  • 10. Monopoly
  • 11. Raggedly Ann
  • 12. Spirograph
  • 13. Etch A Sketch
  • 14. Little Golden Books
  • 15. Hot Wheels
  • 16. Lincoln Logs
  • 17. Candy Land
  • 18. Roller Skates
  • 19. Silly Putty

I was a big believer in #7.  Although, I did enjoy many of the others on this list!  I think we need to get back to these types of toys for kids.  These toys inspire so much creativity and exploration!
