I also didn't prefer dolls, though I did have a few (thanks to gifts from people who didn't know I was a tomboy :) I had a cap gun and holster (Roy Rogers, of course) a football, lots of stuffed toys ( I loved animals) and games, all kinds of games. My sister and I would play games and jacks all of the time. Those were good times, back when you had to make your own fun ... it didn't come on a screen with a controller in your hands. I love this museum ... thanks for sharing ...<br /><br />Andrea @ From The SolAndrea @ From The Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00657271089899579261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4759507296620179428.post-2569780561926580602014-03-10T20:51:28.638+00:002014-03-10T20:51:28.638+00:00Great photos of so many interesting toys that I ca...Great photos of so many interesting toys that I can remember.

I remember all the toys you showed. The French knitting we call "Punniken" here, didn't know the english word.I did it a lot and even my brother did.
