Whichever decade you grew up in, you can’t help but feel an affinity towards it. We all get nostalgic for that period in our lives, and toys are just the things to transport us back in time. Whenever you come across different memorabilia from your childhood, it takes you back to a simpler time. Gen Z will never know the joy of playing with the most advanced, colorful, yet simple toys. So whether you’re a 70s, 80s, or 90s kid, it’s time to feel nostalgic for all those battery-operated toys that once filled your life with meaning.
#1: We Could Spend Hours on These
If you have ever played with this toy, just looking at it will make your heart beat a million beats a minute. The toymaker TOMY, famous for creating many toys, created this gem in the 1970s. Even though it was created years before, different versions of this amazing water toy can be found in stores today.
This little contraption caused many frustrating outbursts from kids all over the world, and for good reason. Getting the little plastic rings submerged in the spikes is no easy feat, especially when you have to fight against the water pressure. We can’t help but feel like we need to play with one of these to remind us of the simpler things in life.
