Do you ever play with your old toys? Some folks have them stored in the attic, some have them on display in their home or office, and some simply gave them away or passed them on to their children.
Unfortunately, I didn’t hold on to my favorite childhood toys. G.I. Joe, gone, Evil Knievel doll, I mean “action figure,” gone, Superman action figure, gone. I do have a few board games that I’ve held onto through the years, Stratego, Battleship, and my old chess set. My kids have some of the toys I had like Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots, Mr. Potato Head, and Rubik’s Cube to name a few.
According to the United Kingdom’s Express, the latter has found its way into a new survey by Busy Bee about toys that adults have held onto since their childhood.
However, Rubik’s Cube is number nine on the list. The survey included two thousand participants who have held onto an average of twenty toys with about two-thirds of them planning to pass them on to their kids or grandkids. The survey also found that those who keep their toys take very good care of them. Almost 80% like to clean them regularly and it gives them a happy feeling as they reminisce about their younger days. More than half hope to sell them and make some money, while less than 50% say they’ll never sell.
