Top 100 Toys of All Time

For this week's random quiz, I thought we'd take a trip back to childhood. 

Top 100 Toys of All Time

How many have you played with? I remember 36 of them.

  1. Some I played when I was growing up and some I played with my kids - 61 total :)

  2. I played with 30 of them. Some were overly specific and others vague, which I think skews results. lol I would have liked playing with the Sylvanian Families. :) Be well!

    1. Yes, very true. Some toys were very specific. But they were rather popular, so I guess that's why?

  3. I only got 35. Was there seriously a toy submachine gun for kids to play with???

  4. Forty-four. Many of those came after my time as a kid, like Transformers.

  5. 21. A lot of these were after my time, so to speak. My son had GameBoys and several others of these but they were not anything I played with myself. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

    1. Yeah. There was a list of just '80s toys that had a similar issue. If you weren't a kid in the '80s, you were out of luck.

  6. 48 which was unexpected as there are quite a few there I assume are US toys. I think it's easier to scoot up the rankings when you've had kids - that's twice the playing :)

  7. 22. Mostly the board games. I still have the Ninja turtle that my nephew traded with me when he was 7. I can't remember what I had that he was willing to part with the turtle. Those were fun days.

  8. I got 33 which isn’t too bad since so many were past my play time as a kid. My brother still has the astin. Martin car and his hot wheels

    1. Yeah, a few I was familiar with due to working at a toy store during my 20s.

  9. 38/100, although three of those were playing with them with my kids. The My Little Pony, Tickle Me Elmo, and Care Bears.

    1. They did say "which ones did you play with?" They did not specify "during your childhood".

  10. Only 28 for me! Some of them were with my kids and grandkids

  11. 28 for me. It's amazing to think how much fun I used to have with something as simple as a Slinky. I was surprised that Toss Across, Don't Spill the Beans, and Easy Bake Oven didn't make the listing. Fun post.

    1. I thought I saw the Easy Bake Oven on the list? I could be mistaken. (I did several lists to get to the one I used, so it might have been on a different one.)

    I think some of those must be gags!

    1. Which ones? I'd heard of many of the ones I hadn't personally played with.

  13. 39. I thought I was clicking more than that, but I hadn't heard of some of the ones on the last page. At 40 I'm in the right ballpark for the 80s-based ones. Spirograph was such a great invention!
