When I was a kid, the toys I loved best didn’t require batteries and they didn’t plug into a TV or require electricity. I know that sounds boring, but guess what? Kids today still love playing with them! Here are 7 classic toys kids still love… some are decades old, and none of them are electronic at all! ## 1. Tinker Toys ![Tinker Toys](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/7-classic-toys-kids-still-love/tinker-toys_7-classic-toys-kids-still-love_500x382.jpg) **Price:** $19.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) The idea behind Tinker Toys is simple - round pieces with holes, and sticks to put in them. You can build anything with wheels, or even just towers. Most sets come with a specialty building project, but you can combine sets to build anything your imagination can produce. ## 2. Slot Cars ![Slot Cars](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/7-classic-toys-kids-still-love/slot-cars_7-classic-toys-kids-still-love_500x399.jpg) **Price:** $14.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) The best holiday party I’ve ever been to had a set of slot cars set up for the adults to play. I had so much fun that night! And I’ve never met anyone who didn’t love them, too, including every modern kid I know. ## 3. Barbie Dolls ![Barbie Dolls](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/barbie-fin_500x400.jpg) **Price:** $14.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) Since her “birth” in 1959, Barbie has been entertaining little girls (and perhaps giving them unrealistic ideas about body types and material possessions). She has everything: friends, clothes, cars, a Malibu Dream house. And little girls still love playing with her (and all her stuff). She’s also in videos now, too! ## 4. Legos ![Legos](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/7-classic-toys-kids-still-love/legos_7-classic-toys-kids-still-love_500x220.jpg) **Price:** $34.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) These little plastic blocks come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and can be used to build anything you can imagine. In fact, there are grown-ups whose jobs it is to make whatever they can think of in Legos. What a job! You can nurture the next generation of professional Lego-builders with a set or two… and they’ll love them! ## 5. Lincoln Logs ![Lincoln Logs](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/7-classic-toys-kids-still-love/lincoln-logs_7-classic-toys-kids-still-love_400x400.jpg) **Price:** $32.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) Build your own replica of Abe Lincoln’s childhood cabin with these simple (but awesome!) rods. Add long green pieces to make the roof… but aside from that, there haven’t been many updates since their introduction in by brilliant architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s son John in 1916… and my daughter adores building with her set! ## 6. Paper Dolls ![Paper Dolls](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/www/2010/11/7-classic-toys-kids-still-love/paper-dolls_7-classic-toys-kids-still-love_500x466.jpg) **Price:** $12.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) When I was little, my mother made my sister and I paper dolls out of paper grocery bags and crayons. Nowadays they’re a little more advanced, but the idea is still the same, and little girls around the world love playing with them. ## 7. Crayons **Price:** $10.99 at [toysrus.com](https://www.toysrus.com/) Give and child a crayon and paper and they’ll never be bored. The first set I ever got had only 8 colors, but they were so much fun… and since then, I’ve added the other 112 colors to my collection. 120 colors - what could your little artist do with that many crayons? Aren’t these toys great? I loved them when I was little, and it’s so nice to know kids today still love them too! Which of these toys did you like best, and which do your kids love best? Or is there another classic toy you love more?
