Dollieh Sanctuary

Did you just discover they still make a toy you grey up with?

They still make Colorforms!

They're more colorful so no more monotone pieces with black lines but otherwise it looks like the same basic idea. Makes me curious if those home vinyl cutting machines could be used to make DIY sets.

Pickup Sticks. I loved them as a kid, but it does surprise me that in today's world of immediate gratification and digital fulfillment that little kids still play it!

Heh, my favorite thing to do with those was to try to design difficult layouts with them. Granted, the "dump them in a pile" method still worked best, but a few times I did this thing where I'd place them all in a sort of stick-jenga with a star on top and then a couple angled through like pins...

Their loss, Pickup Sticks and Jackstraws are great for motorskills.

I liked Tiddlywinks when I was a kid.

Cookie Monster dollies.
