Favorite Childhood Christmas Gift

[See_KING_Truth]

So I was just sitting here reminiscing on the Christmasses of my childhood and my favorite gifts. Yes, I know that Christmas isn't just about the presents; at such a young age, presents was the only concept that I could fully understand. Ahhhh, the memories!

What is your favorite Christmas gift(s) from your childhood? Post pictures if you are comfortable I will be looking for one to put up.

One of my all time favorite Christmas gifts was: The Sit 'n' Spin, one of the best toys that were ever invented and probably has a lot to do with why I have no motion sickness whatsoever.

To add to this: posting a picture of the toy would be a nice addition. I have no idea what teddy ruckspin is so I gotta google it.

I have wanted a drum kit for as long as I can remember.....probably because my parents didn't want me driving them crazy lol

Dude, sit'n'spins were fantastic!

I think my favorite was Beauty and the Beast one year and then another year I got a huge box full of art supplies.

When I was maybe 3 or 4 my aunt and uncle got me a big plastic play kitchen with plastic food included. I loved that thing, even after I outgrew it.
I can still remember trying to see if I could squeeze into the little oven attached to it, lol (I was sometimes a strange little girl. )

Another fav gift was a big dollhouse.

When I was an older kid, like 8 - 10, I had an obsession with basically any crafts. Especially colorful beads and origami paper. So I was always delighted when I opened these on Christmas.

This was a present that was for both my brother and I...Awesome! --Little Tikes Activity Gym w/ Slide (internet photo, didn't want to sort through pictures atm):



Coolest thing is that we had it inside of our apartment instead of outside

Oooh, I remember those plastic gym things. I remember some friends of ours had one in their basement, and my brother and I would climb on it the wrong way.

The one that we had took a beating for years lol. Toward the end of it's time with us, and the beginning of my "too big and too heavy for this thing" era, we carried it over to a friends pool and used the slide to launch us into the 2 ft. deep puddle of water, FUN! FUN!

After growing out of it we eventually gave it over to some family friends, their kids continued to get years of enjoyment out of it....for all I know that thing could still be around somewhere lol. They sure don't make toys like they used to

[Catlynn]

Moon shoes.....yes.

[See_KING_Truth]

My cousin had a pair of those!

[Catlynn]

Yes! So fantastic.

"My Child" doll with the felt face.

Wanted it so hard and finally got one for Christmas. I loved that thing.
