I remember elastic twist, marbles and jacks.
We had a large a large box of Bako, which was going cheap as Lego came on the market. It had bases with small holes for metal rods, where you could slide the bricks down. You could make some great houses, but not as versatile as Lego.
I was given a toy mangle, which made a wonderful horse! And ladybird books which made wonderful steps for houses created on the armchairs. We didn't have loads of toys, but adapted whatever came our way. Old kitchen cupboard doors made wonderful rafts to go on an imaginary river.
I still have my teddy, minus eyes, nose and very little fur. And no squeak due to the fact I used to jump on him apparently!
