My 3 year old daughter is really into My Little Pony right now. I love it because I used to play with My Little Pony when I little.
So it got me thinking about the other toys I played with when I was younger.
Things that were popular at the the time were:
Carebears
Cabbage Patch (my mother waited in line for hours at Bradlees for one)
Strawberry Shortcake
He-man and She-ra (they rocked!)
Pound Puppies
Teddy Ruxpin
Popples
Rainbowbrite
I wish I still had some of these toys for my daughter to enjoy!!
What were some of your favorite toys from your childhood?

I was really into army men and trucks when I was younger. When I was really young, I liked the cabbage patch dolls and strawberry shortcake, especially when they came out with the scented dolls. I like baby dolls in general. I had Barbies but I wasn't into them much. I didn't like playing with 'girly' toys much. I was more into the 'boys' toys.
