One of my neighbor boys takes those three wheeled things with the big wheel in front of it and modifies it into a chopper using bicycle wheels. He's gotten really good at it to the point it looks like it was factory made that way.
Good night brother.

Well, I'm not so old school, but I grew up in the late 70's early 80's and there still wasn't all the video things that there is now. However, my childhood was great! Saturday morning cartoons were everything!!! I grew up in an apartment complex and there was always tons of kids to play with. Our biggest joy was "kick the can," which is a version of hide and go seek, stick ball was a must in the evening. We also played in the woods a lot, but that just gave me poison ivy...LOL! Nothing to help the itch besides some kind of yellow detergent soap my mom use to buy! The only video game system that came out then was ATARI, but that was for the rich people in the neighborhood.....LOL! Yes, I still have quiet an imagination that stems from my childhood.  |

Definitely time for our generation to show the younger generations, to steer them in the right paths, guide them in light of God's Word, and teach them how good our God is. We must remember these are the ones who will be teaching the following generations. When I was growing up we played outside till mom called us in or dad 'whistled', then we had dinner, showers and family time. Family time, that is almost non existant now a days, but we really can't blame the young one we have to blame ourselves for slacking up on what we were thought. |

That was weird, I had a strong urge to pray. So I followed that urge, and ended up praying for Israel.

No thanks, I feel that enough when I fall. Normally it is face first to the floor.  I'm about to break out the walker/wheelchair.  But this has been coming for a long time. I've just refused to do it. |

Great Thread! The ultimate toys: Mud puddles.
Water - including the bath tub.
Snow.
Trees - GREAT if you had a tree house.
Plain old dirt.
Searching for a 4-leaf clover.
Running to the end of the block - thinking that you can actually stand beneath the end of a rainbow.
Identifying stars and groups of stars.
A jar to keep various bugs in.
Catching lightning bugs for your jar and keeping them until mom and dad told you to let them go.
Taps for a pair of shoes that mom and dad would never allow you to wear to school or church.
Getting a brand new pair of Keds or Buster Browns.
Getting your first crystal radio kit (Heathkit) with the cool and private ear-piece. If you were really cool about it, you could listen to it at night and not get caught.
Communications experiments with empty cans and strings.
Collecting baseball cards with a bonus of chewing gum.
A whole nickel burning a whole in your pocket.

Tonka Trucks for the dirt and mud. (Which I have a few still.) Putting balsa wood models together.  They still make the kits. Tetherball Radio Shack radio kits. Reel to Reel tape recorders Family time, where the family discussed how their day went, (then the dreaded homework time.  ) Record players, 33&1/3, 45's, 78's (I still have some of those records.) Playing Cowboys and Indians Kite flying (homemade kites) Now the kites are all ready to fly.

YEAH!!! those home made kites were the best!!!! and what about the little go carts made from milk crates some pieces of wood, skates, and some rope for steering! or an old tire hang from a tree on a rope, and those little hand clapping games, my cousins and I played almost all day.!!! Those were fun days. Those were the days that finding a penny in the street almost made you feel rich |

Finding a penny in the street, would buy you a 1 cent Tootie Roll. Ah yes, the memories of penny candy.
