1. I can’t pick a single favorite toy, but high on the list were blocks, tinker toys, chemistry set and Thingmaker. Anybody remember Plastigoop? Do they still have that? I don’t think a toy like that would get past whatever organization screens toys. It involved high temperatures (I got several burns) plus chemicals that are probably toxic!

I’m afraid that I don’t remember those toys. I had Legos, and I loved them. I built quite a few model ships, but I never had a chemistry set. I had the Radio Shack electronics set, and that one was fun. We had Play-Doh and Silly Putty, but I don’t remember Plastigoop. Did you have to heat it in the oven or did you mix ingredients to get the high temperatures? Was the point that you could mix the components and then add something so that they set into a particular shape? Thingmaker sounds interesting as well, but I don’t remember it at all.
