WHAT I USE TO

Published by melodyschif at 12:04 am under life Edit This

As i was doing my drops i suddenly thought about what kind of games, shows, cartoons and movies did i watch 20-25 years ago. Unlike today, kids can have a pick of any games they want to play be it on the computer, handheld games,educational toys and many more. When i was growing up we were more happy playing with the stuff you can just find lying around anywhere. There was more interaction with your peers and kids your age. Having cousins growing up was a big plus since we all just played with each other and fight with each other as well. Our games could be as simple as playing hopscotch, rock toss, Chinese garter, jack-stone, bato lata, slipper toss and many more. The more fun we had the dirtier we got, those were the days.

As for shows we loved watching wonder woman, incredible hulk, knight rider,mcgyver. For cartoons i loved watching the smurfs, rainbow bright, the jetsons, woody wood pecker, tom and jerry, looney tunes, astro boy, transformers, flintstones and many many more. It was different then, the cartoon characters where what they should look like, animated, cuddly and not dressed skimpily. Hopefully when we go back home to the Philippines i want to show my girls what kind of things we play with and how we play it.
