Amanda Jane dolls clackers - ouch elastic skipping space hoppers- genuine one were orange! A hoop that went round your ankle with a ball on a string, that you whizzed round youre ankle and hopped over...or that was the idea... Shopper bikes- yep had one of those. Roller skates -Jacco brand stilts and Pogo sticks Spirograph- loved that jess x - child of the early 60's -when we were children longer |

Our son, born early 1970s had Big Trak, a sort of tank,which was programmed by the child to move in certain directions. Might have been early 80s when he had this though. Anyone remember these? |

My son was born in 1979, so I don't remember too many 70's toys. He had a Fisher-Price activity centre in his cot, a Clatterpillar, a Snoopy pull-along dog, plastic stacking cups and bricks, and when he was older, Star Wars toys - millenium falcon, speeder bikes, X-wing and Y-wing fighters, an Ewok Village and lots of figures of characters from the films. Not sure if Lego Duplo was 70s or 80s, but he had the Duplo Farm and building blocks. CB >|< |
