Remember your favorite classic toys?
One of the perks of being a parent, is being able to show your kids the classic toys you once loved. While our son is still kinda young for some of these, we are still excited for the day he can play! This is a roundup of a few classic toys, that you might remember from childhood…
Classic Nintendo
Remember Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, and The Legend of Zelda? Well now, you can get those, and 27 other pre-installed in this throwback of early video gaming. This Classic Nintendo comes with a standard HDMI cable, so it plugs right in, ready to go! You can flex your old school gamer skills against the kids, without their fancy controllers and headsets. It’s 8bit heaven that’ll make you feel young again! And the kids will like it too! Although they’ll totally miss out on the annoying dust inside the cartridge, and won’t need to “blow” inside to get it to work again.
Boggle!
Super Soakers
Every kid had one of these growing up, in some shape or form. You either had small pistols, medium sized soakers, or double barrels that out out a gallon a piece. If you were really cool, you had a keychain 😉 Well now, these water guns are better than ever, and perfect to get kids outside during the summer! Plus, it’s a rule that parents get the biggest of them all.

Hot Wheels
These little cars will never die out-kids love them! And there’s millions to choose from. No matter what your favorite style, model, or color; there’s a Hot Wheels for it. The Criss Cross track was one every kid had to have (or, if you were a girl, you played with your Brother’s). Still an awesome toy, and one they will def need help putting together by Mom & Dad.
What’s some of your favorite classic toys growing up, that you can still find today?
I used to love my Super Ninentendo and would play hours of Super Mario Kart. Great trip down memory lane! 🙂
Thanks!
A friend just gave my daughters her adult daughter’s old cabbage patch doll. They are loving it! Talk about throw back! I never had one (we had the less expensive Flower Kid instead, ha!), but I remember the popularity of those dolls!
That IS a throwback!!
I still have my Super Nintendo! So many great memories playing Super Mario and Mario Kart!
Mario kart was the best!
Oh wow, these definitely take me back! Kids just don’t understand how great things were back in the day! Have you seen Stranger Things on Netflix? The nostalgia of that show always gives me smiles.
I tried watching it, and just couldn’t get into it. Maybe I should give it another shot…
I had to watch it more, lol. But once I got into it I was hooked.
