Remember when toys were exciting and innovative? Not the toys of today, but the REALLY innovative toys of the past—the ones that were so different and so thrilling that toy companies couldn’t keep up with the demand for their amazing products? Toys are a beloved part of childhood. An old toy found in an old attic, once lost but never forgotten, can bring back a whirlwind of memories of happier, more innocent days. While some toys have been left behind in the dust of more technologically advanced products, others have been able to stand the test of time.
