I loved my Spirograph. That was lots of fun. We also got a small version of a Potters Wheel that same year. But we never played with it much.

A group of us girls from church played Ouija one night at a slumber party. There were some VERY weird things that happened that night - I can't even remember the details. But I know it was a strange night. Several decided that they would never ever touch one of those again. (that didn't include me. It took alot to get thru my thick head. LOL)
Recently, a high school teacher near here brought a Ouija Board into his classroom one day as a teaching tool. Oh my word!! People went ballistic over that!! I think the guy even lost his job, if I remember correctly.

Ya, I know more than one kid who ruined (what would have been) a VERY expensive baseball card by putting it in their spokes.

YES!!!  
I had a dream, when I was 12, that I would be pumping my little sister on my bike and she would get her toe caught in the spokes and cut it badly. It happened the very next day! I always wondered about that and why at 12 I would have that dream.

I don't have any pictures to post, but some of the most fun I had as a small boy was playing with homemade "tractors". They were simply a block of wood with fruit jar lids and a nail for the wheels.

Re: Toys/Games You Remember From The Past
We (all the neighborhood kids) used to love to play Kickball.
That was one of my most favorite ball type games!
