Etch A Sketch had the two knobs on it

And they were great! (I would have thought they came out in the '60s, but I might be wrong.)

That was the Little People Garage! All my 6 siblings loved playing with them all. Then all 3 of my kids loved them! For our sons 1st birthday, hubby told me that, "Every boy needs a Tonka Truck." At 15, he still has 3. 2 are the same, so they gave it a paint job. Lol

"its not a pet rockkk.......... but his name is Rocky! and let me tell you all about him" ;) haha love it

I had pretty much all of those. I loved growing up in the 70s and I love all these videos. This all brings back some good memories. Fun video really enjoyed it👏👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙 it’s 106° here. I guess that would make it around 41° Celsius there.

Brings back Lots of Memories

These videos make me feel my age. I remember all of these toys from my childhood. I must have put a million miles on my Tonka trucks when I was a kid. I loved the Evil Kenevil stunt bike too.

I had a pet rock, his name was Charles Butterworth! I trained him to walk on a leash, LOL.

Nice to see that some of these items made it to Europe.

We had almost all of these and I still have some of them stored in boxes. The Evel Knievel makes an appearance in the driveway occasionally. 😃

Awesome video guys! Brought back memories.

thanks for sharing another Family moment. 😊

@@thumper7047 don't recall but I had three dolls I will never forget before the Star Wars Action Figure era began... Captain Kirk (tv version), JJ Evans, Kid Dynomite (Good Times) and Evel Knievel with cape. The moment I received Luke, Obi Wan and Vader with retractable light sabers in their forearms...it was GAME ON!

I think that was called Battling Tops if I remember right. I loved that game

If you build your own pond you could build yourself a warm water tank for you. Push it into a trough with a black liner to use the sun to warm it up

At 1:55, there is still one of those Waterful Ring Toss games at my mother's house. Her grandchildren have played with it. My two brothers and I were allowed to play the noisy "Hungry Hungry Hippos" game only if the door to the room was closed. I won't say you must watch the "Star Wars" movies, especially the atrocious Episode 8. I was 7 years old when the first was released in 1977. I was too young to truly appreciate how revolutionary it was. The only comparison I can think of is when people accustomed to silent movies saw their first "talkie" in the late 1920s.

I was born in 1970,so I had all these toys,my favorites were the Evel Knievel and the Six million dollar man toys.

Several of these are still available today. My sister swiped our Simon. Still works too. They still sell Shrinky Dinks. Don't feel too bad, Kat! We always wanted an Atari but we got stuck with a Commodore 64 and it only had 2 games. Mom wouldn't even consider buying any others. My sister eventually bought a Nintendo and my brother a Sega but that was years later, lol.

I used to loooooove Shrinky Dinks! They were so much fun.

Cool pick, reaction great. Remember all of this (never had most). The water one you see i had ,as well as a similar one that had a ball that you tried to score a basket. 2 people could play, each had a button to push. When young comics were sold everywhere, local store, pharmacies etc. A huge variety to select from. My favs ( had many) were Jonah Hex(western), Witching hour( horror), Sgt Rock (war) ,Conan barbarian ( Science fiction), Archie (assortment of titles), Bugs bunny (various titles), Tarzan ( fantasy ?) Still have over 1000. (put away) Video brought back a lot of happy memories, thank you, enjoy your day (swim, sleep )

Anybody who complains about you guys having to run a fan in the summer can go ahead and shut up. I'm listening with IEMs and barely hear the subtle, pleasant drone in the background. If it's hot, just use it. I prefer my favorite KZreadr families don't die of heat exhaustion and am happy to tolerate a couple months of fan noise to serve that end.

I couldn't hear their fan over my fan.

Really enjoy your videos! You have a great family. ❤

Hey Graham Fam!!! Happy to see another video, as a child of the 80s many of these I had. My childhood dentist had an open free standing toy shelf between each dental chair- i loved the water thing with the rings!!! These bring back so many good memories!!! Hope you're having a good day (despite the heat)! ❤

I had almost every one of theses toys. They still sell Pet Rocks. My daughter got me one for Christmas last year. I use him as a guard rock. He can't hear as well as the dog but he'll put a huge knot on your head if you break in. The Evel Knievel motorcycle was the best. Just make a ramp, line up a few Tonka trucks, and then wind him up and he'd jump them. If you just let him go on level ground he'd just keep going and going. The Bionic man had a telescoping eye so you could look through the back of his head and you had a tiny telescope.

I have a few of those Mattel Electronics games and they still work 40+ years later.

In 5th grade Terry Williams got the Mattel Football game (8:00 mark) and his older brother Greg cut the wires to the speaker so we could play it in class, under our desk without getting caught. Sigh... Good times...

As an American, THE BUSH means something totally different, wink wink, haha, and yes, it is a nice toy to play with as long as she lets you.

When I was a small child I saw a glowing device that radiated lots of heat and had a small round light that had things moving on it. It was one of the first TV's. They had it at a Science Fair. I have seen all of the gadgets and gizmo's come and go in my lifetime. Anti-gravity toys are probably on the drawing board as we speak.

I remember when they came out with a pyramid shaped puzzle like the Rubix Cube. Same concept, except it was pyramid shape. I never could solve it! Except one time when I was watching tv, I was just turning it like some type of fidget toy, I just happened to look down and low and behold...WALA! I had solved it! I wasn't even looking or paying attention to it. It just happened! Don't know how I did it and never could do it again. That is what really annoyed me. Never could solve the Rubix Cube either. The closest I ever got without cheating was getting three sides at one time. These types of toys were absolutely infuriating to me.

I either had/know someone who had every single item that was on this video. Lol I guess I should mention I was born in 1969.

The quality of our toys was better but they could be highly injurious. This is what sets Gen X apart and gives us our toughness, lol. How many little girls had to cut their brother's Evil Knievel stunt motorcycle out of their hair? Suffered first degree burns from the Easy Bake Oven? Stepped on one of those awful Spiro-graph pins or metal jack stones? I won't even go into the insane bike riding or lawn darts.... Damn fine times if you survived.

Atari , we all became experts at fixing them ! Lol Those games were great.

I used to use that exact same trick of peeling the stickers off and putting them back on. I think the new rubiks cubes are printed on, with no stickers so you can’t do that anymore.

Hello from Florida, 102° 100% humidity. Long time time sub, keep up the good work. Don't worry about a fan running. Take care, God bless.

Oh my goodness... I remember all these but unfortunately was " too old" for toys by then 😂 that was my opinion not my parents... I definitely played with more 1960's toys 🤫 Love from Georgia ❤

This is off topic from this video but I know you've done some eating challenge videos, I suggest you take a look at Joel Hansen and what he does. In his recent video he ate a 9 pound piece of sushi. I think it would be fun to see your family react to how much he eats. :)

I loved that electronic football game back when I was a kid but tried it a few years back and aside from the nostalgia, it was so boring now. I still love playing the Atari games though.

Im with you about water temperature i don't get in often cause its too cold

My time of toys was in the 1960s

Mom was describing Etch-a-scetch.

the thing with the knobs is etch-a-sketch

OMG I had like 95% of these Toys back then...

Hi Graham family!! You should definitely watch the original trilogy at least on your family channel!! Star Wars A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back, and then Return of the Jedi... then decide if you want to continue with the numerous othe movies and Disney shows.

Exactly, those are the only ones that I have wanted to watch, haven't even bothered with any of the other Star Wars movies (maybe someday?).

I still have my Atari 2600 with plenty of awesome old games. My old Nintendo too. It's getting harder these days to find a TV that's easily compatible with old systems.

Etch-A-Sketch was made by the Ohio Art Company in my town of Bryan Ohio.
