We visited my parents this weekend, who still live in the home where I was raised. Whenever we visit, my son likes to play with my old childhood toys. This one is a classic, the Fisher-Price “Play Family Sesame Street”. I loved this set! This will clearly date me, but this toy was only produced from 1975 to 1979. Watching my 6-year-old play with the set, as I used to, brings back a flood of memories. He prefers to play with this outside, in the backyard, while taking a break from playing in the pool. My friends and I spent countless summer hours alternating swimming with deck playtime in just this way.

My son had a few Little People sets when he was younger, but seems to have outgrown them. He played with them a ton, and they still seem like new! I’m glad he still enjoys playing with my old childhood ones when we visit my parents. 🙂
