#7 Pull-A-Tune:  Whoever invented this thing was a genius.  We of course COULD have picked it up and carried it around, but the fact that it rolled and had a rope meant that it HAD to come with us everywhere.  I'm not sure I ever learned a song on it, but it sure was fun! 

 

#8 Hula Hoops:  Would you believe the Hula Hoop didn't actually come out until 1958?  Well, we certainly loved it when we got ours.  Like most toys, we went through this one in waves.  We loved it, then hated it, then re-discovered it, then forgot about it.  It's one of those things you can come back to again and again and still enjoy.  Even now!
