On Wednesday I posted about some Christmas presents that I have bought for Burton and it got me thinking about the presents I would have had at his age when I was a toddler. Asides from the more traditional toys that I have got him as mentioned in my Festive Finds post, we have also got him a battery operated/remote controlled car for him to ride in and his grandparents are hoping to get him a VTech Innotab. Sooooo much more technologically advanced than the type of gifts I would have received at the tender age of 2 and a bit years!
So this is me around the same age as Burton is now (maybe a little bit older)
Now I cannot possibly remember exactly what I was given for my third Christmas but I do have found memories of the following toys which I know I did have when I was very young
Fisher Price Chatter Phone
Made popular again now as it was included in Toy Story 3
Weebles
Now although I do not remember receiving my Weebles I know I loved my treehouse and I DO remember the day my mum and dad decided that it was time for it and my beloved Weebles to be taken to the rubbish tip! I was devastated that they were being got rid off – well i must have been because that day is etched in my mind even now!
Fisher Price – Musical TV and Clock
I remember that the TV played row, row, row your boat and I think the clock played a couple but Londons Bridge is falling down was one of them. These were great products I really liked listening to them, and they have recently been re-issued as I saw them last Christmas in a toy shop in my local town.
I also remember I had a walker which had a fluffy toy dog attached to it; a train which you put disks in and it would move and play music and I think one of those ‘lawn mower’ toys which was like a push and pull musical drum thing on wheels with a long handle (?).
Anyway, these gifts stand out from my toddler hood – which ones do you have fond memories of?

Thank you xx
i know what you mean by lawnmower type toy. Can’t remember what they were called but can visualise it. When i was 2 and a bit, I can vividly remember having a plastic apron with “The Muppets” on. I loved it and am pretty sure I wore it all day. Whenever I see a photo with me wearing it, it brings back a really powerful memory.
I love love loved my weeble’s tree and I definately remember the fisher price tv
When I was a toddler though I did get a dolly (I think I was3) becuase my brother was due the following January! The doll is still around now!

Ooh I thought you were younger than me! 🙂
I had weebles and the phone, and I think I had the Fisher Price record player (or that may have been at playschool!) Great idea for a post – I may just add this to my ‘post ideas I’m going to steal pile’
Love this post. I was born that year but I did get weebles a few years later I loved them. I got the boys weebles but they werent the same. I remember the lawn mower type toy with the bits in it xx
What an awesome post and a blast from the past!!!
All the Fisher Price toys stood out in both mine & OH’s memories so much so that we bought them all last year for our Youngest Son’s 1st Christmas. I have to confess I love playing with them as they bring back wonderful memories.
I loved my Girls’ World and my cotton candy My Little Pony. The Boy has Weebles now and they are so cool!
