Building With Red

Monday, October 26, 2009

Do you remember playing with these when you were little? If you don't recognize them, they are Tinkerytoys. I had a set when I was a child and it was very nostalgic for me to play with them along side my own children.

    Tinker Toys and Lincoln logs... I wish we still had them as they were from the early 50s when my siblings were young... I came along later and played with them in the 60s, as well as my first nephew in the early 70s...

    I don't think I've seen them before here but looks like something my younger son would enjoy. He just love those kind of toys.
