I have Crazy Clock, Mouse Trap, and Fish Bait games in the attic, but I wish now I never got them; even though in the 1960s I played Mouse Trap so much it was wearing out. No, if I did it over again, replace them with paint by number kits. By 5th grade I was teaching myself to draw better. By 6th grade, only me and one of the boys were becoming artists.
What an enjoyable look back. I loved the toys we grew up with. I had Operation, Pick up Sticks, Gnip Gnop, and my very favorite games were Don't Spill the Beans and Hi Ho Cherry o. Looking forward to more looks back. Thank you! And Merry Christmas
Hey, Tom. I hope that you are having an amazing Christmas with your grandkids and that you gave them some games that they will remember all of their lives. I enjoyed this stroll down memory lane. I especially loved the 'Baseball With Playing Cards' game. My family was very poor while I was growing up and my friends and I were always trying to invent games to play with a deck of playing cards. We played a lot of five card draw poker with match sticks and a lot of 'War'. I think that we would have loved this baseball game. Thanks for the video, my friend.
I had the handy andy tool set and forgot until watchig your video. Funny I was organizing my tool box and just last week wondered where the small plane and square came from. I wondered how I aquired these. You just answered my question, they were the remnents of the Handy Andy Tool set as I was able to solve this riddle from watching your video. Thank you.
I got a bit lost during the baseball stuff but the clock game looks good. Loved the piano tune at the end. Thanks Tom and a very happy Christmas to you all there.
Between you and Scoutcrafter you probably have every toy and game from when we were kids!...lol I have to admit that I have never heard of 4 of the games (the playing card baseball, Crazy Clock game, Computer Baseball and Quick Shoot). And like you said... we never played the mousetrap game just set it up and set it off. What was the name of the game where you had a box with balloons inside and you had nails and hammer to pop the balloons? Merry Christmas George
Hello Tom, I'm really enjoying your videos and all the memories. I was wondering if you might remember two plastic toys called Boob Toobs and Loliplops? Thank you
I had a toy similar to the Crazy Clock, except instead of hitting a man out of bed at the end, it makes an old man dive from a high diving board into a bucket.. cant remember what its name was..
FYI, in regards to the baseball computer game, it is, indeed, a computer game. The early computers were gears, rods, levers, springs, and various other mechanical/analog devices. You meant to say the game is not a digital computer game. Just sayin'. I want to make sure the early computer design dudes get their props!
Now I play the game "Algorithm Boost" in the comments section with my YT friend ALLEY PICKED.
I had the marble shooting game as a kid and you are right it was way more fun to shoot marbles at each other than play the game!!!

I have done many toy videos including some of the ones you mentioned. Thanks for watching.
I forgot about the Handy Andy tool kit. Had one. Fun and dangerous stuff. Also had a Vac-u-form. More fun and danger. Merry christmas, Tom
I wish I had kelp all my toys from the 60-70.
Thank You and Merry Christmas 😀
I had the Crazy Clock Game in the 60s. It worked very well.
I had Mouse Trap, Shananigans, Tip-It, and Hands Down for starters.
These are great memories, Thanks for doing this video!
Trouble is known as Frustration in the U.K.

We played a lot of cards also. Including War, Crazy 8's, Rummy, Kings in the corner, and of course everyone's favorite... 52 pick-up :-)
Merry Christmas, Tom. Thanks for an enjoyable tour down memory lane.
Merry Christmas Ken!

Merry Christmas Mark! Some day I'll explain all the baseball terms :-) You never played "pinners" ? Maybe you called it by a different name.
Pop o matic. That's a long time ago for me.

Bang Box? I never had that one. I had to google it. Vaguely remember it. Maybe I'll find one at the flea market next year.
Video was awesome!! Hope you had a great Christmas!! . . . . Rog

I had a mini-tool kit as a child. I actually used the small hand saw to cut down small trees.
And NO, I was never good at sports and never will be.
Love to play "Algorithm Boost!"
