I saw this toy kitchen set and I just WANT IT. I collect toys from the 60's (I'm one myself 
) and this is just so evocative of the early sixties to me. Isn't it fab?

Awww...that is so cute Maureen!! I must admit...DD got a doll for Christmas that was special made to look like a real baby. I find myself changing it's clothes and fixing it's hair. 
She doesn't get a chance to play with it because I've usually got it!!! I still have a little bit of kid in me too!!!

isnt that one of the reasons we have kids? so we can do/play with childrens things without people thinking we are mad!
i love the kitchen - there is a similar one in the uk in the vertbaudet catalogue and i am SOOOOO tempted to buy it, its really resonably priced as well but dd4 has a toy kitchen already that she loves and wont be parted from. (awww, no fair!) i dont know if you had spirograph in the usa it was the big toy when i was little (in the 70s) well they have brought out somehting called doodle doug which is basically a batterypowered version of spirograph in the form of a spider. i brought it for my daughter because I wanted it!! 
im so glad i did we have had lots of fun with it this morning!
this one is really expensive, but I hear some Costcos in the US have something similar.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH 
Oh well, I've been sitting here appreciating my old Marx tin dollhouse (1965) and it's dollies (Dolly Darlings)..... I still love 'em, along with my Enid Blyton Malory Towers books, Nancy Drew books, and yes SPIROGRAPH, I loved that set!
I don't have kids, but my hubby and I are both kids at heart so it works out ok, we have lots of friends with kids that we adore. Bought them the Mousetrap game for Christmas, the one with all the little parts, remember that?
I can shop eBay for this stuff, hubby agrees:
- I find and buy a sixties Easy Bake Oven
if
-he can get a set of Rockem Sockem Robots.[/list]
