My Favorite Toy as a Child

One Christmas, 1978, perhaps, I received my first art studio--well, actually, a yellow-plastic Crayola turntable. This glorious artistic wheel held a tower of 64 crayons,  8 markers, 16 color pencils, 8 water colors, and 3 paint jars in primary colors. Paper not included. Paired with the Spirograph that year, the world was at my finger tips . . .

What was your favorite toy as a child?

Niiiice! I don't think I can top that.

P.S. Please see my other two (yes, two) posts from the beginning of this quarter.

I remember seeing the Spirograph on t.v. and thinking, "Wow! Colorful prettiness!" I never got one, alas, but I do know the joy of getting new art supplies :D
