Think You Know The Morning Waking Crew?
We all have favorite toys from our childhood. Since the "Toy Hall of Fame" announced their finalists for this year, I thought you might like a little insight into the early years of The Morning Waking Crew.
First of all, who doesn't love board games! Did you always have to be a certain game piece?
I always wanted to be the 'thimble'
'Better living through chemistry!'
Mark's favorite toy was his chemistry set. Explains a lot, doesn't it!
He couldn't decide between Rock 'em Sock 'em robots or little green army men. (By the way, I know the picture isn't "Rock 'em Sock 'em's)
Oddly enough, traffic guru, Rick Kirkland's favorite toy was also Rock 'em Sock 'em robots!
He says his two favorite games were Bop It and this classic...
His favorite past time as a child was this classic.
And...my favorite
I would spend so much time outside hula-hooping, definitely one of my favorites. I wish I could still do it. Thinking back, it was great exercise.
What was your favorite childhood toy? Check out what some of our listeners posted on our Facebook page. It's fun to see how much things change over the decades.
