There is just nothing better than the good old classic toys. I love toys that have been around for as long as I can remember. Today I have a Retro & Vintage Toys Gift Guide with 55Â classic toy ideas for your little ones, or for the big kids in your life! It is fun to see that even though these classics have been around a long time, they have gone through some changes over the years. I love seeing my kids play with things that I loved as a kid. What were your favorite toys as a kid? Did they make the list?

Oh my word, I haven’t seen Jacks in years! I didn’t even know they still made them. I will probably be seeing a few of these under our Christmas tree this year. 😉

These are wonderful samples of vintage toys! Etch-a-Sketch just gave kids hours of drawing fun, and the Rubic’s Cube still boggles the mind to this very day. I remember the days when children went totally crazy for Smurfs, and View Master was the ultimate in picture films. Thanks for bringing back childhood memories!
