What was your favorite toy as a kid? Why? And if you still have it, show us in a photo.
Mine were my original, metal, banged up Matchbox Cars from the late 1960s. I imagined worlds.

I gave most to my grandkids, but hung on to a few for myself. Just in case I want to imagine some worlds.

My favorite toys as a child growing up in the Middle East were Arab dhows. In 1961 I was 10 years old and took my first dhow ride.
