I can still remember being in the shop and choosing my one. There were 3 in pink, yellow and orange outfits.
I can still remember being in the shop and choosing my one. There were 3 in pink, yellow and orange outfits.Oh my good God! That top one was called Baby Beans because their body was a bean bag. This was my very first doll. I might have a tear in my eye.
I'd forgotten all about this- I loved it! My eldest would love this, I'll have to see if I can find anything similar.Girls World Fashion Designer, I had one and absolutely loved it and then years later I bought the same one on eBay and my daughter played with it.
You would select a hairstyle, top/blouse and skirt/trousers then put paper over them, put the frame down and use a crayon to trace the image onto paper and then colour it in.
Yes I had one.I only know them as I've seen them for sale on eBay.

If someone bought me that now I would be made up
looks like one of The RiddlersI've still got these 2. My cousin had 2 Thumbelinas and mine has an unfortunate hairstyle due to being carried by her hair/ my attempt at a haircut.View attachment 2341628

Has anyone ever had to mend a Sindy? About 5 years ago, I found mine and the elastic band in her waist had dried out and she was in 2 halves. I performed First Aid by putting her in a jumpsuit...
I had all of my sisters hand me downs and I remember playing with this with my Barbies! I remember one of the legs being broken on the dressing table and getting annoyed having to balance it against something.I had this bedroom set
I LOVED my Chicaboo! My sister had a girl one and I had a boy one! Wish I’d kept it!Awe, I'm glad I've found this thread. I vaguely remember in the 80s having a chicaboo (?) and a pink snugglebum that glowed when you hugged it. There was a family to collect but my parents only let me have one. I always wanted a my little pony too. Ooh and Little Professor! I loved maths.
Omg I had this too - that picture has brought back so many memories
Out of curiosity I looked on eBay and Vinted and found one. My daughter is only 2 and a half but I’m going to keep it for when she’s a bit older. My mum had kept mine and loads of other bits but they were ruined by a leakOmg I had this too - that picture has brought back so many memories
Me and my sister always wanted one and never got it, I know they're crap but I saw one online a while ago and was so tempted to buy itI'm not sure it was considered a toy exactly but these threads can't go without mentioning that Mr Frosty slushy maker was overhyped cack.
God I can feel my fingers getting hit by them still
Lucky it was only your fingers. I loved mine. I do remember them being banned at school though. It must have been dangerous for something to get banned in the '70's.God I can feel my fingers getting hit by them still
They were banned at my school too. I liked the skip-it but it didn't half hurt when it clonked your other ankle. I preferred my disco ball (it looked like Saturn and you bounced on it). They banned those tooMe and my sister always wanted one and never got it, I know they're crap but I saw one online a while ago and was so tempted to buy it
Anyone remember skip it's? From the early ish 90s? They banned them at my school because so many people got injureda lot of children's toys from thag time were probably quite dangerous compared.to now
I remember Clackers. If you were not very agile the string ended up wound around your ankle and being thumped by one of the balls.
Oh my gosh, we had those when we were little, they'd been my mums originally I think.They were properly solid balls. Basically a weapon disguised as a toy
Yes and also Teeny Weeny Tiny Tears. They're still very collectable today.Yes I had one.
Does anyone remember Teeny Tiny Tears, a smaller version of Tiny Tears?
Not unlike a bolas.Oh my gosh, we had those when we were little, they'd been my mums originally I think.They were properly solid balls. Basically a weapon disguised as a toy.
