Nostalgic Toys and Retro Favorites for a New Generation (You’re Welcome, New Generation)
Give the gift of a toy you loved!
Tanner Greenring and Matt Harvey

Every generation thinks that their toys were the best toys. Turns out: Every generation is right. (Except the toys of the ’80s and ’90s really WERE the best toys ever made, thankyouverymuch no further questions.)
For serious: We all grew up with toys that hold a special place in our core memories — the play things that brought life to the back seat of a road trip, helped us find the hero inside, or made a sibling rivalry into an epic competition of wits.
Bring your small friends into the world of “when I was your age” with our epic guide to nostalgic and classic gifts from the wayback machine!
Little Tikes Rocking Horse
The Little Tikes Rocking Horse has all of the back and forth action of the classic you rode into adventure, but with a more sleek, modern design. These things are heirloom toys of the highest degree. Always weirdly charged with static electricity (seriously, do not touch the cat after riding this thing), but hours of fun.
Care Bears
Caring is what counts. It was true back in the ’80s, and it’s still true today. The Care Bears have been reimagined and updated for modern kids so they’re a little less cutesy and precious, but they’re all still pretty open about their feelings. They probably had something to do with our entire generation being so open about mental health, so here’s hoping they have the same impact on the next generation. I always identified as a Grumpy Bear, liked the color of Good Luck Bear, and grew into a Tenderheart Bear!

Care Bears Medium Plush - Grumpy Bear
The Care Bears are a group of huggable BFFs living that sweet caring life and what better way for you to join in on the fun than with the new Care...

The Original Lincoln Logs
The Original Lincoln Logs are a beloved classic building toy that has been inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame. Your kiddos can build a cabin, build a fort, build a Potemkin village — the new frontier of the living room awaits their settlement!
Simon Classic
Simon is the super addictive memory game that will tests both recall and reflexes! Simon will play a pattern of lights and sounds — you will reproduce this pattern or you will LOSE! Can you (or your kids) beat Simon?
Pretty Pretty Princess
Compete to collect a complete set of jewelry and be crowned the prettiest of Princesses! This is a turn taking game of chance, where kids play around the board collecting jewelry in their chosen color by landing on corresponding spaces. There’s a black ring involved, and the player who gets the black ring technically loses — but black rings are cool and I’d consider that a win.
Electronic Battleship
If there’s a more satisfying sound bite to signal a victory than “you’ve sunk my battleship,” I’ve yet to discover it. With Electronic Battleship V2, it’s classic Battleship plus lights and sounds, plus V2-ness! Happy grid blasting!

Electronic Battleship
You sunk my battleship! Try this new-age electronic version of battleship, where the lights & sounds bring the battle to life! Keep that poker...

Girl Talk
Girl Talk is basically a mash-up of Truth or Dare and Wheel of Fortune — players spin the wheel to determine whether they have to answer a question or perform a daring action. Are you prepared to “tell a funny story from your childhood,” “arm wrestle another player in the circle,” or “reveal the name of your secret crush”? Each answered question or task earns points towards coveted “fortune cards” that will give you sight beyond sight. This classic game from the 80s still has all the charm and fun of the original — and you also don't have to identify as a girl to enjoy it.

Hasbro Girl Talk Board Game
It's the truth or dare game with outrageous fun, big laughs, and silly secrets. Loved playing the classic Girl Talk game as a kid? Now you can...

Speak & Spell
Speak & Spell is one the raddest educational toys ever! With multiple game modes to help younger students learn to spell and sound out words while playing, the Speak & Spell was an early touchstone of the learn and play market. You’ll know that familiar synthesized voice as soon as you hear it. This toy is so iconic, it’s even been used as sounds in hit songs. If you’re looking for a toy that talks back — this is the one.

Lite Brite

Basic Fun
Such a simple concept, and so capable of absorbing us for hours on end when we were kids. Lite Brite came with templates you could follow to light up some classic designs, but you could also go off-book and make your own creations, which more often than not just ended up doing double duty as a nightlight for most of us.
Fisher Price Farmer Says See 'N Say

Fisher-Price Toys / Basic Fun
For a lot of us, the See ’N Say was our first foray into the world of DJing. You were meant to pull the lever to hear a somewhat fuzzy recording of whatever animal the arrow happened to be pointing at, but most manipulated the arm to scratch and warp the audio track and make some pretty sick remixes. Who knows, maybe it’ll inspire a whole new generation of Soundcloud rappers?
Slime
Every kid in the ’80s and ’90s dreamed of being slimed on "You Can't Do That on Television." Nobody knew what the stuff was or why it was so appealing, but it was core to the network’s identity back then. Slime (and its cousins, Gak and Floam) were packaged up for home use in the ’90s, but fell off the radar for a while (probably because parents got sick of it constantly getting embedded in rugs). But now it’s triumphantly returned once again! Rugs be warned!

Fisher Price Chatter Phone
For some reason, every kid in America seemed to have one of these things in the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s. It’s gone through a few redesigns since then and lost a bit of its creepy charm, but Fisher Price has brought back the classic design again (even though phones like this are essentially nonexistent at this point). Its shifty little eyeballs are ALWAYS watching.

Schylling Fisher Price CHATTER TELEPHONE
This spunky little phone is sure to captivate any audience. With its rolling eyes, ringing old school rotary dial, wheels that spin and a mouth...

Tiger Electronics Handheld Video Games
We didn’t have the Nintendo Switch back in 1992 — we had Tiger Electronics. These things were cutting edge back then, featuring tiny little LCD screens that technically had every single game sprite and level baked right into the display. If you had a paperclip handy, all you needed to do was push in the reset button and get a preview of the entire game. And Tiger Electronics handheld video games are the stuff of road trip legend! Every 90’s kid had a bus ride to camp made better by one of these magical pieces of technology.
