What was your favorite toy when you were a child?

Posted on Apr 10th, 2007 by Gaia Team : Gaia Team Gaia Team

Some of us liked LEGOs. Some of us played with tiny toy soldiers. Some of us loved particular dolls. Some of us liked clay or paint or crayons. Some of us lined up toy trucks and cars. Some of us had stables of little ponies. And some of us played office. Think back over your own childhood. What was your favorite toy? And how was that a glimpse into who you are now?
