The Toys I played With

In Preschool - Grade V, There were many intersting toys that I had played with at home and at school.  In Pre School there was a selection of toys on the shelves in the classroom from a dollhouses to trains.

Pre School / Kindergarten



Wooden Train, In 1988, I got an award for creating the longest wooden railway with Brio track.  The train pieces were magnetic and the track pieces were jig saw cut.  There was another wooden train in my kindergarten class that I played with too.  That wooden train connectors were different to the one in the Pre school classroom

Fisher Price Play Family House



The Play Family house was one of the first toys I saw in the Pre School Classroom.  The facade of the house features stone, wood and stucco. 

Fisher Price Play Family Action Garage,



I remember the day that I got the Action Garage at a garage sale in 1987.  The elevator had a bell that dings when you turn the crank on the side of the elevator shaft.  The elevator will carry one car at a time.  When the elevator is at the top, the elevator floor will slant and send the car down the ramp.  I thought the ramp was a slide when I saw the car roll down.


Fisher Price Play Family Castle

The Play Family Castle was one my favorite toys of Pre School.  The castle features a movable drawbridge and a curved staircase.  The figures featured includes a pink dragon, king, queen, and knights.

Fisher Price Play Family Village,



The Play Family Village features a Fire House, Police Station with a jail cell, Barber Shop and a phone booth.  I played with this toy in either in Pre School or Kindergarten.

Fisher Price Children Hospital



I played with this toy at the Mt Albert Child Care Centre.  This toy features an elevator between the ground and the second floor.  I was facinated with this toy because of the elevator and the sliding doors.

Fisher Price Play Family Westerm Town,

This toy facinated me because it had a moving walkway and a trap door.  This is the second toy with a trap door. 

I will be adding more toys on a new page.  Keep your ears to the Tracks.
