See N Say was a little after my time. I don't know if you remember Clackers or Clickers, the long piece of string with a hard plastic ball on each end. You moved it fast over your head until the balls were clacking or clicking together. I never hurt myself or knew anyone who did, but they were banned in probably the 80's. Also, SkyDancer fairy dolls. My daughter had some when she was little. You pulled the string and the fairy would fly off and spin around fast. They were banned too. She loved hers! And this was in the past 15 years or so.Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02673587601591096070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3894524135734016573.post-37698948954736878482014-03-13T17:38:58.284-07:002014-03-13T17:38:58.284-07:00I loved lawn darts as a kid!!

I was the proud owner of the Fisher Price town/village....complete with the traffic light, letters for the mailbox, and even a jail! It was my favorite toy ever and I still have parts of it!

I'm laughing so hard!! I knew and loved each and every one of those wonderful dangerous items!! I can't say as we tasted Stretch Armstrong because I think I remember the smell was a tad foul but we probably rubbed it all over someone while chasing them down in our slippery Keds shoes!
