Maybe there really is something to the old expression “they don’t make ’em like they used to.”
The classic toys and games, many of the same ones I played as a kid, are still great and kids love them.
Right now, the most popular game in my house is Hungry Hungry Hippos. It’s not very exciting by today’s standards but seems to work. Thing 3 keeps it in his bedroom and asks to play it all the time.
Candyland, Chutes and Ladders, and Slip n Slide have all been hits in our house. What other classics are still popular?
Life! My 7 year old loves it. It has changed a bit since we were younger.
Trouble and Don’t Wake Daddy are also popular in our home! and COOTIE!
Trouble was a hit here, too, but the popping got to be too much so it “disappeared”
I told my grtmanodher how you helped. She said, “bake them a cake!”
Ah, i see. Well th’tas not too tricky at all!”
