Favourite childhood toy

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Mine was a big plastic aeroplane which came with a little set of luggage and two piolets and some passengers who all looked like eggs with clothes on... I had a fire engine with little egg firemen too. :D

I miss being a kid :(

What was your favourite toy when you were a child?

    My favourite was my A La Kart Kitchen! haha. Does anyone remember them, those little kitchen things you pulled around on a cart thing.

    I used to wake my parents up at stupid o clock in the morning by dragging it into their room and asking what they wanted for breakfast. Bless. I wonder what happened to it hmm.

    I can't really remember many fave toys, but I did have lots of really cool playmobil stuff. Including a hospital set thing, and a huuuuge dolls house. It was much fun.

    A yellow fluffy dog named lello. (believe it or not, lello is not child speak for yellow, my aunty named him.)

    He went everywhere with me. Still does practically (holidays, round my boyfriends if he's going to be out late etc) . And I am pleased to say he's actually sitting on my lap right now because I needed a cuddle :blush:

    My teddy called Thomas, who still lives in my bed (at home)
    Lego was awesome, I remember we just had crap squitty bits of lego then one day my mum found her HUUUGE box of lego that she had as a kid and it had all cool bits like roof tiles and little taps and things, and cupboards with doors that opened!

    Best toys though had to be my farm playset, which had loads of random animals in it (including a duck billed platpus.) My parents were really poor when I was a kid so it was a mixture of charity shop animals and my mums old farmyard and buildings. But it was the best. Over the years it grew to incorporate my pony collection. Groovy.

    I had a yellow elephant teddie bear called... Ellie. I can remember crying for her and being inconsolable until she was found. She's still around somewhere but my daughter's decided she's a he and... well, it's not the same now. I still have the memories though, she never let me down, that's what was so special about her, unlike family etc.

    I had a blue cuddly elephant called Ellie! I got him for my 8th birthday. had always wanted a go cart and was at the shop about to buy it when I spotted Ellie and decided I wanted him instead. He cost £9.99 and the go cart cost £99.99. My parents were delighted!

    My other favourite toy was my Big Yellow Teapot. I could play with that for hours. I also loved my Barbies. Had sooo many of them. They're all still under my bed at my mum and dads house!

    I had a few... Ben the Dog, which was a big cuddly dog from Debenhams. And my doll, which I still have somewhere - for some random reason I called her Surreal. RANDOM. ;)
    I loved Lego too.

    I so have one of those, I loved it so much.

    I also have my bear, called Barney. We were inseperable. When there was a fire at our house I was distraught because I thought he was going to get ruined, but luckily he was saved :)

    Take heed..the dangers of drug use. Did she fall in with the wrong crowd, Barbie no doubt, that coke taking bimbo.

    As for me I had an air powered motor bike, it was sweet as.

    I had a doll which I clearly remember naming Hemma after one of my Dad's friends. Years later, my Dad is denying ever having any friends called that name or anything similar, so god knows where I got that from... :confused:

    As for favourite toys... I loved all my dolls and teddies, I used to play schools with me as the teacher and make them all little workbooks and made a register and everything :D
    Also loved my playmobil :)
