A WayBack Post: Toys: A History of Playtime with the Mikester
Toys: A Personal History of Playtime with the Mikester.
My siblings and I have always been imaginative and creative. We inherited my mother's creative gene, and our playtime was varied and elaborate. I think possibly because my mother might have been trying to make up for the fact that she hardly ever let us out of our own yard, because it was unsafe to "play in the street", she and my dad frequently bought us toys, games, and sporting goods. We did not lack for playthings, and these playthings embellished our imagination, spurred our storytelling acumen, and helped to cement us as a family which played together. We had our quarrels, and sometimes mother had to show us the "spanking stick" when we got a bit too boisterous, but for the most part, all three of us were able to develop complete worlds of play, with continuing chapters, favorite characters, and involving plots, which had, from playtime to playtime, intrigue, adventure, and a bit of soap opera. Instead of playing like we were in a war movie, we would "construct" a war movie, with sets, actors playing parts, and a definite plot with an ending. Perhaps we didn't exactly know the ending when beginning play, but by the time playtime was over, one scenario would be ready to "pack up", and the next playtime might bring something completely different.
I've never had kids. I did spend three years with a girlfriend who had two children, ages 12 and 14 at the beginning of our relationship. The girl was a preteen, and she liked her CDs and walkman, and was developing friendships with schoolmates in the 'hood, something my mother wouldn't let us do even at 14. The boy was into videogames and videotaped movies. He could watch the same Disney movie endlessly, on tape, and he always had his gameboy in hand. Neither of Pat's kids "played". Possibly because they had to age rather quickly being the son and daughter of a woman who was more "roommate" than mother. Their interests were very passive, TV (They had their first experience with cable when I moved in and activated my subscription.) music, and videogames.
Growing up we had a TV but we didn't get a record player, until I was in the latter half of high school. While Pat's kids could basically be found sitting in front of the television set from right after school until bedtime, including mealtime, my siblings and I would spend whole evenings participating in playtime of some sort or another. After my dad bought our house, in 1960, he made us each a wooden toy chest in his shop, and each chest was about 4 x 3 x 3. I remember regular trips to "Toytown" where Dad would give us a certain spending limit for being good all week, and I would get things like bags of plastic cars or dinosaurs. Each toy was givne it's own "place" for storage. There was "the block box" and the "little men drawer." No matter how many toys we "needed' for playtime, at the end of play, everything was piled "neatly" back into it's particular receptacle.
The most imaginative toys were the simplest. Blocks. We had alphabet blocks and those shiny brightly colored wooden blocks in different shapes, but since my father was a woodworker, he made us thousands of blocks from pieces of pine lumber. He would cut them in different shapes, and then sand them so that they were smooth. We would construct Egyptian pyramids, modern cities, and movie backlots with our blocks. Building toys were always special to me. My dad constructed an electric train layout with tunnel and bridge for me on two pieces of 4 x 8 plywood before we moved from our rented house in the late 50s. At the time I didn't realize Dad had given me the train set. It was a gift from "Santa Claus" and miraculously appeared in the living room by the tree on Christmas morning. By the mid fifties, Tinkertoys, American Plastic Bricks, and Lincoln Logs joined the toys in our rooms. Tinkertoys were good for everything from making vehicles and structures, to making "people". A "blue stick" in a "spool" was a young boy. A girl had a piece of string (for a pony tale, like my sister) inserted into the slot at the top of the stick. She wore one of those cylindrical tinkertoys with the hole in the middle for a "dress". "Red sticks' were teenagers, and "green sticks" were adults. They lived in houses made with our blocks constructed from blueprints in housing brochures.
Paper bags were "puppets", and I had about 250 or 300 separate "people" in the 5 or 6 years I was making them. My brother and sister similarly had whole populations of puppets made from #6 small grocery bags. We used crayons to color their faces and bodies. They were even easy to store, as they folded flat. My brother and I imagined "planets" where our toys lived. His was "Cowboytown", and mine, "Cartown". We also had a "movie studio" for producing "movies" which came in handy when we were limited to only one and a half hours of play.
Favorite "toys" were the kind we made ourselves. I had a "TV" made out of a shoebox with slots in the sides where I could slide the "film" which consisted of "frames" like a comic book. One playtime "adventure" I remember well was "lava". The contents of the dirty clothes hamper would become steaming lava which was forever bearing down on our GI Joe action figures and Tammy dolls.
Until we grew too old to believe in Santa, he "brought" one "special" toy, usually the largest, the night before Christmas. We children had to stay in our beds, or else Santa might not "come" to set up the toys. Dad and Mom would literally spend the complete night arranging the three setpiece toys for our "surprise" on Christmas morning. Each of us received about 10-15 toys of varying size and cost. Usually half of these broke within a week of Christmas.
Christmas always held an abundance of surprises, and besides the toys which seemed to be engineered to break immediately upon playing with them for the first time, like my GI Joe Helicopter, we did keep most of our toys, and so our "collection" just kept getting larger and larger.
Sis had those tin doll houses, and then one Christmas got a plastic "Dream House" furnished in the best 60s modern style. Both my sister, brother and I constructed whole cities and towns out of construction paper cutouts. Looking back on our play, it seems no wonder that we liked to "build things". My dad was in the process of adding a bedroom and bathroom on the newly purchased house. Building was in our blood.
My brother and I both collected and traded cards. Playtime at school recesses usually involved sports or trading. I still collect trading cards from time to time. In the 80s I had two complete Garbage Pail Kids card sets because they reminded me of gruesome monster stickers I traded as a kid.
My brother and I loved playsets, and these were the toys "Santa" usually brought. Sister had "The Flintstones". Brother had a medeival castle and a western town, and I had Cape Canaveral and Moon Base Alpha. You can't buy something like the Cape Canaveral setup these days. The spring loaded "rockets" had enough power to take out one of your eyes. My favorite playset was "The Blue and The Gray", a Civil War playset with so may soldiers, building, bridges, horses, and ammunition, that I got tired after I spent two hours setting it all up.
As a preteen, I graduated from building blocks to model kits. Starting with military vehicles and planes, I immersed myself into model building, and I got "into" building customized cars, by combining pieces in different kits. In my slideshow above I show a photo of my first auto kit, a Duesenberg, and also the "Big Deuce" a 1/8 scale model '32 Ford which had windows which cranked open and closed and working headlights.
My taste in "toys" changed in my junior year in high school, when I was able to drive my best "toy" to school, a 1965 Dodge Dart I nicknamed "The Fantastic." I've "collected" some vintage cars since then, and I always think of them as my "toys". In the late 80s, I rode a motorcycle.
Since I never married, I have continued to buy "toys". The latest "toys" are electronic in nature. My love of music began by listening to radio, since we didn't have a record player, but as soon as the family started to spin platters, I began buying albums weekly, and this has grown into collecting media of all kinds, including movies on five different formats, three or which are obsolete.
The most recent "toys" are my computers. I could even say I have a "collection" of not only the hardware, but all the software as well. I was an "early adopter" and as the technology quickly changed, I wanted to keep upgrading. Now, thanks to my latest "toy", I have enjoyed an avalance of personal creative energy and production unmatched since my youth.
Everyone has their own toys, and their own way of playing. A lot of social interaction is built on our experiences at playtime. Much of our imagination and creativity first receive inspiration during playtime. And probably, we all remember our toys throughout the decades, and playing with our toys helped us to begin acting and reacting to the pitfalls and foibles of life in the "real world"
I used another "toy", the Slideshow feature on the Xanga Photo Manager, to create the slideshow of my "toy history" when I first presented this entry in 2007. I hope you all can watch it. Perhaps you'll even remember some of the toys presented, all of which I or my siblings had at one time or another in the 60s. I searched for images of specific toys I remember from childhood, then created the composites, and built the slideshow. Believe it or not, it took about four hours! This entry was originally posted on my blog on 5/27/07 for my late Internet Island blogring, and I was inspired to post it again as part of my monthlong "Christmas Celebration" here on my blog when I read Dawn's (CelticDawn) entry about her memories of her children's toys, "Toys of Christmas Past".

Loved this post! I remember having the stick horse and the metal doll house~ though I did not play with dolls. Not for sure why my mom got it for me~ she never played with dolls either. lol I played with my stick horse and my trucks in the dirt.
To this day~ I still ride horses (real ones) and play in the dirt (garden). I am true to my passions.
Thanks for the sweet memories Mike!
Transformers. I got a lot of Transformers during holiday seasons.
Hi Mike... You had quite an imagination as a kid. I remember entertaining myself, too. Of course we didn't have the electronic distractions kids have today. Lincoln Logs were used to build my dream homes. Thanks for the memories.
All of my G.I. Joes and other toys met their demises from bottle rockets and other explosives
I was accused once of having never been a kid. But I do distinctly remember being a brat. And, I remember some of the toys.
oh my...I only see those things in one of a kind toy stores, now. Like the ones in little shoppes and boutiques.
As A child my toys were often books and modeling clay - a lot of modeling clay. My father built the showcases and did the store decorating for FAO Schwartz (At that time the world's most famous - and expensive toy company) when they decided to open a Miami Beach store. they paid him partially in toys, and that's when I began my collection of Wm Britain toy soldiers. I wish I still had them in anything like good condition - they would be worth a small fortune! Unfortunately they saw hard use - both by me and my younger brother - even the very rare ones are pretty battered. Mine are all pre-1942!
As I grew up I got more and more into things like sailing ship models - and later a couple of real sailboats. We also had the usual electric trains and such but those were mostly for the kittens' benefit. Reading, sculpture and outdoors stuff (I was a dedicated Boy Scout) made up most of my childhood Christmas toys.
We had Lincoln Logs and an etchasketch (Wm Britain toy soldiers had a complete RCMP collection) but mostly I remember doing things at Christmas rather than what we got.
must be something wrong with my mind as I really can't hear the word "toys" without hearing the word association "sex"
Hey remember those bozo the clown where they have something in the bottom, beans or something, and you can punch them in the face and they bounce back up and grin at you? CREEPY!
You are very talented. :fun: What a history....
:sunny: :goodjob:
My boys loved blocks, lincolin logs. leggos, play dough, color markers, crayons and paper.
Oooh, I had a lot of those toys too; thanks for the memories, Mike! I had the stick horse, play dough, Etch-a-Sketch, and because I was a tomboy I played with plastic army men and the boy next door and I would dig in the dirt and build roads and bridges for our matchbox cars. We played marbles, and I loved Lincoln Logs, Brite Lite, and Creepy Crawlers and Incredible Edibles. I also had Barbie and other dolls, lots of books, and we played jacks a lot too. I guess I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. We sure had fun in those days, didn't we?! Thanks again; great post, Mike!
BTW, love your childhood photo!
I don't have the detailed memory that you have of Christmas gifts, etc, but I do remember playing with many of the same toys you mentioned here. We also did a lot of outdoor 'play' as a family -- picnics in the mountains behind Santa Barbara were favorites, looking for wildflowers, etc.
You're very welcome and pretty much. They would blame it on Chupacabra or something.
I have recently parted ways with most of my belongings. I think what I miss the most is my collection of toys. It helps to think of them going to lots of different children this Christmas. Most of them were bought by a collectibles store. I really wish I had kept more of my Christmas stuff.
What an interesting collection of toys. I remember when I was younger I got to play with some of those at my grandparent's- specifically the Lincoln Logs and Tinker Toys. Outside of that my toys growing up included a mix of Ninja Turtles, cars, MarbleWorks, Disney videos, and Nintendo games. It's amazing how much toys have changed over the years. You capture this fact well. Thanks for sharing.
I remember reading this, surprised to see that i did not leave a comment. I played with most of these toys too. In fact i remembered lincoln logs so well i bought a log cabin on a river, which is now lost in my past, like so many things.
