I love toys. They bring out the kid in me. You should see me in the antique stores when I find a toy that I used to have, or even one that my brother and sister used to have. (I can't believe my toys are in the antique store, that just aint right!) If I could, I would buy every one.
I have already talked about my favorite toy in the Advent calendar of Christmas Day 17 - My Grab Bag of Memories post, but there are other toys I can tell you about.
One of my favorite dolls was this Mattel Liddle Kiddles Lilly of the Valley Cologne Doll.
Ah -- I can smell her wonderful fragrance now. I know they don't make those anymore. I sure wish I still had mine. Would like to have one again, but not for $49!
Then there was the Kiddle Lockets:
I honestly can't remember for sure which one I had, but I think it was the one with the dark hair inside the green lined locket and purple stones.
I also had a baby grow a tooth doll. I got her for Christmas abound 1967 or so. It had short blond hair and slept in a little blue plastic crib. She had two metal bars on the back of her heels that stuck to the crib when she sat up. Then you could feed her with a little plastic pink spoon and she would grow a tooth.
I haven't been able to find a picture or reference to her anywhere. I bet she would be worth a pretty penny if I still had her. On second thought, maybe not - she would not have been in the best of condition. I guess that's probably why I don't have her anymore - duh.

I had these too! I think I had the locket doll with the blonde ponytail hair and the red dress and the lavender one (middle row, far left). I loved these! I think I might have had the lily of the valley doll. Was there a lilac one? Maybe that one too! Thanks for the memories.
ReplyDeletedo you remember People Pals? around same time period it was small like that around that time. My sister had a board game,played like Candy Land. I thought it was called People Pals and the short cuts you had to have 2 dolly cards.
ReplyDeletethanks Susan
I never heard of that one, but I did find a reference to it. Check out the following link:

Thanks for stopping by.
I had the same baby doll! I can't find any mention of her anywhere! My sister and I had the little kiddles lockets. I found one on eBay just like the one Santa brought her and had it sent to her 2 years ago!
ReplyDeleteI think they were called Little Kiddles. I had a number of them
