And from the what the hell were they thinking, these gems. For the record, I do not want these back.

I don't remember that one but I remember the Tiger hand held games.

Me and my friends made football, basketball, baseball, and wrestling games up with dice. For football we would have 6 guys named you roll for the player. then 6 actions pass, run, tfl, int/fum, run/pass, incompletion that you rolled for next. If you got a positive play you rolled out of...roll one die for yards, 2 for yards, TD, out of bounds, 1 die again, and both again. We had leagues set up, kept stats and records. So simple but so much fun lol

I guess that means I miss the simple joys of being a kid. Going into the woods building forts and playing army. We used to think Bigfoot was in the woods and searched for him daily. Lol

so Dunk-A-Roos are gone, but apparently if you buy Teddy Grahams and funfetti vanilla icing, you're pretty much set on a Dunk-A-Roos replacement

and it's pretty damn good

Imagination was one of the great joys of childhood, now kids faces are buried in tech devices; but so is mine.

You couldn't keep me in the house as a kid. I ate breakfast and was gone till supper time, then back out till dark. If I was born in this generation I wouldn't know any different, but I couldn't imagine not having those memories to look back on.

Absolutely, I was outside as long as possible. I remember staring out the window during bad thunderstorms waiting for the rain to stop so I could go outside. And more than a few times my Mom walking around the neighborhood yelling for me to come home because it was dark.

I'm with you. I grew up in the sticks of Appalachia, and not only did I not have a housekey, on the occasions where somebody would accidentally lock the front door it took forever to find a key to unlock it. Out the door in the morning, onto the bikes, maybe into the woods, wouldn't be seen by adults for many hours.

I'd **** my pants if my kids disappeared like that.
