Reading this article makes me think back on my favorite toys. Hands down, my favorite was my erector set.
Which toy will make the hall of fame? Battle heats up
Which toy will make the hall of fame? Battle heats up
The other 2014 nominees are, My Little Pony, Rubik's Cube, Slip 'N Slide, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Toys and the toy trucks sold each holiday shopping season at Hess gas stations.
The two winners will join last year's honorees, the rubber duck and chess, along with the 51 other toys inducted since the hall was established in 1998. Previous winners include Etch A Sketch, Play-Doh, Barbie, Mr. Potato Head and the Frisbee.
But items such as the cardboard box and stick have also made the hall for inspiring kids to transform them into play things on their own.
