Maybe they still can! For me, personally, I'm a girl, but I played a whole lot with those while I was a kid! Tonka trucks, Transformers & GI Joe action figures, crazy video games like Star Force & Top Gun, & backyard war games with the boys, among other things! I still play Warbook & Warcraft 3 by my lonesome (i.e., on skirmish) & Tekken 5DR or 6BR for some reason. Maybe I took after my dad, who was in the military & had to make do with weaponry & stratagem & aviation & survival. War games taught me a lot of things. Think The Art of War by Sun Tzu. Now my question is, if there's this one toy that you can still play up to this very day, what would that be? <abbr><em>abbees last blog post..<a href="http://sp-lovecraft.blogspot.com/2009/06/summer-solstice-2009.html" rel="nofollow">summer solstice 2009</a></abbr></em> What a tough question!

Now my question is, if there’s this one toy that you can still play up to this very day, what would that be?

that’s a good thing!

my question: do toy guns, swords, action figures, war vehicles serve any purpose in a child’s growth and development?

I took good care of it and it was always displayed in our living room but now I don't have any idea where it is. We moved to the metro and maybe it was given away already. If you can afford buy your child (or future child) only one kind of toy what would it be? I remember it was a doll that sang, walked, and was as tall as me.

I was a kid who preferred books over toys. But, another reason is that when I was 6 years old, I played with my older cousin's Barbie doll and I accidentally pulled its head off its neck. That freaked me out and I never wanted to touch Barbie dolls again.
