Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-mo."

Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do
over!"

"Race issue" meant arguing about who ran the fastest.

Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in
Monopoly.

Catching the fireflies could happily occupy an entire
evening.

It wasn't odd to have two or three "best" friends.

Being old referred to anyone over 20.

The net on a tennis court was the perfect height to
play volleyball and rules didn't matter.

The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex
was cooties.

It was magic when dad would "remove" his thumb.

It was unbelievable that dodge ball wasn't an Olympic
event.

Having a weapon in school meant being caught with a
slingshot.

Nobody was prettier than Mom.

Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better.

It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the
"big people" rides at the amusement park.

Getting a foot of snow was a dream come true.

Abilities were discovered because of a "double-dog-
dare."

Saturday morning cartoons weren't 30-minute ads for
action figures.

No shopping trip was complete unless a new toy was
brought home.

"Oly-oly-oxen-free" made perfect sense.

Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was
cause for giggles.

The worst embarrassment was being picked last for a
team.

War was a card game.

Water balloons were the ultimate weapon.

Baseball cards in the spokes transformed any bike into
a motorcycle.

Taking drugs meant orange-flavored chewable aspirin.

Ice cream was considered a basic food group.
 
:D You could also decide by......one potato, two potato, three potato, four.............:D
 
I want to go back to a time when I could lay on the bed for hours with the sun streaming through the window and listen to Elton John records-over and over. Thinking the whole time, "Yep, I'm gonna marry HIM!" Oh, the fantasy life of an adolescent. oh, and yes, I still love him, but marry him-mmmmmm???? I don't think so :)
 
You mean ice cream ISN'T a basic food group - when did this happen??!!!!! ;)

I just want to be a kid again in general and watch reruns or originals of all the shows that were shown last night on the TVLand Awards show!!!!! Gosh I miss being a kid sometimes!!!

You know - the best time that dd and I have playing cards is when we play War!!!!! We laugh so hard and she LOVES that game!
 

I like your list *********** but I wonder how much of the list will apply to our kids when they are old enough to look back like we are now? It's definitely a different world!
 
As much as kids have to do in school and what they deal with....I don;t want to "go back" if it is the same time period as now. Bot, bit some of those things bring back memories
