  • Once in a while things will pop up in my head from my child hood or in my 20's and I'll just laugh. Just thought this would be fun to post things from the past.

    Do you remember..........

    GLASS Click Clacks ??? I had a pair of these when I was about 13 years old, we would bring them to school and walk thru the halls with these dangerous toys. They were so much fun, we didn't mind the bruises OR the risk of them shattering and breaking in your face.

    WHAT WERE THEY THINKING !!!! LOL
  • Not sure if mine were glass or not.

    I remember romper stompers (I think that's what they're called)
  • You're all speaking a foreign language! Click clacks? Romper stompers?

  • Click Clacks:

  • YES I remember them and i also remember being hit in the face by one!!! ahahahahaha

  • My favorite candy back in the 70's was Pop Rocks and Bottle Caps, loved the cola flavor.
  • Ohhhhhhhh I remember bottle caps! I loved those! And I always was one for those candy cigarettes

    Anyone remember Weebels? Something about 'Weebels wobble but they won't fall down'
  • I remember all those! Loved my Click Clacks and Pop Rocks. Remember Wheelo's?
  • Wheelo's, nope never heard of them. I remember Big Wheels but the wheels weren't in the front or back, they had two big wheels on the side, one by each arm and you used your hands to turn them, I think they were called Crazy Wheels.
  • I don't remember any of this stuff. Well, except for the candy! I loved Pop Rocks and the candy cigarettes. My mom never thought the candy cigarettes were appropriate, though, so I had to sneak them when I was with friends.
  • Ahh but do you remember the chocolate cigarettes? they were good but melted by the time you got the wrapper off. Loved the wax bottles w/juice inside and pixi sticks. which all are still around.

    Mood Rings

    Hoppity Hop

    Pet Rock

    And my Banana Seat bike Schwin
  • Until I started Atkins, I used to go buy giant pixi stixs and down them. Now the thought of all that sugar makes me ill.

    Anyone remember Zotz? They were these candies that were a hard candy with some white powder in the middle that fizzed when it got wet. I loved those!
