The Gifts We Remember

We all have memories of favorite gifts. The ones that stand out from the rest, right? The two I remember most from my childhood are:

** Giant Barbiehead on a tray - ok, it sounds gruesome. But it rocked! I loved anything Barbie in the 1970's. I got this for Christmas one year and I played with her until the special Barbie make-up had hardened on and I had combed her hair into a frizz that wouldn't quit. Oh, and that weird "old Barbie" smell kind of turned me off too. What was UP with toys from that error and the icky plastic smell? Someone actually has one for sale on eBay.

** KodakInstamatic 125 Camera - Here is a GROOVY 1960's commercial featuring the fab camera. Mine was actually from the 1970's but I couldn't find a commercial for that.



What are your favorites, old or new? I'll post more of mine soon.

Happy Gifting! Suzzy
