My husband had one--indulged child! I had Creepy Crawlers, though. I made so many bugs! And that satisfying hiss as the hot plate hit the water. Mine had a bonus--a short to the metal case, so I got shocked when I touched it...good times. I never had a Whee-lo, but I always wanted one. My husband had one–indulged child!

Slinkies and etch-a-sketch. The Photography One has an tiny etch a sketch as a desk toy... My boys were way into legos as boys. We had castle guys and space ship guys. We...oops, I mean THEY would spend hours creating big towns of castles and space stations. Oh, yeah. Slinkies and etch-a-sketch. The Photography One has an tiny etch a sketch as a desk toy…

Not sure if it was the "Whee-lo" brand, but I had a toy like that. And Lincoln Logs, and Tinker Toys and Lawn Darts. Now my kids have things like K'Nex (loads of fun, btw) and Legos and video games.

I'm going to Cracker Barrel today to see if I can find one for my kids. They'll love it! I grew up on Barbie, but I remember Lincoln Logs they were fun too, much better than Legos. :lol: I loved Whee-lo. I’m going to Cracker Barrel today to see if I can find one for my kids.

I was a kid who played with HotWheels cars and model horses. But mostly I kept my head buried in books. Yea, I was a tomboy geek. :rofl: Nope… never heard of a wheelie.
