When I was young , I love to play with a small tank with some toy soldiers with my little friends in my neighborhood. Sometimes, I play water gun with them and we all end up got wet and have fun with it. I sometimes would bought some cowboys and native Indians fighters with horses and started to shoot them and pretended we were at war with each other. However, we just have fun anyway. WE will also use those soft plastic balloon like hammer and tried to hit each other and of course it didn't really hurt at all. Well, that was my childhood and it was fun at that time. Right now, we just watch kids doing the fight but with different weapons : the Jedi light sword . How about you ? Share with us ?

None. I didn't play that much when I was a kid because all my parents wanted was for me to stay inside and learn my ABC. No regrets anyway.

In our time, a favorite game for girls was cooking with toy utensils; in Bengali we called it '[i][/i]ranna bati'. I don't know whether little girls play this game now. I also used to open an imaginary shop with my brother and sell Indian snacks . I loved dolls too

At the preschool, our little girls (mostly American and Israeli) love to play dress up or cook things and share them (sand ice cream, for example) with friends and teachers.

I liked to play piano and play sports with my friends. I also liked to make WWII model airplanes (Spitfires and such).

The "toys" I remember most were flowers, seeds and things like that from the yard. I had toys, but we used to enjoy pretending to gather food (acorns, grass seeds and stuff) and making dolls out of flowers, especially out of four-o'clocks. The blossom was the doll dress and if you took one of the green things off the place where the seed was forming, it was like the round seed became the head with hair.

We didn't have a lot of toys as kids, but we did have balls and skipping ropes.
