It’s my birthday month and I am nostalgic for the toys I grew up with. I was a child in the 80s and let me tell you – we had some fabulous toys! Here are a few things that make me think of my younger years that work for my life right now.

This Grumpy Bear necklace from Vinca’s Care Bears collaboration would turn a blue day bright!

A trip to the mall would not be complete without a stop to Sanrio (aka the Hello Kitty store) for my sister and I. I would totally use this Hello Kitty makeup sponge in my makeup routine!

My favorite movie as a kid was Beetlejuice. I think that movie is what defined who I am as an adult. I love this lil plush version of him from Itty Bittys.

One of the things that I dreamed of having as a kid was talking furniture. Sadly, I still do not own any but I can dream with this cute Funko Pop Chairry and reminisce about Saturday morning fun.

I liked art stuff as a kid and Spirograph was something I could play with for hours! I loved how the designs came together and looked artistic without much effort. This Travel Spirograph (USA / UK) would be great to take to a coffee house and doodle with while enjoying a drink.
Did you grow up in the 80s? If so do you have any favorite toys?
