Remembering childhood, everyone can name their favorite toy - a doll, a teddy bear, a toy car. And in the Soviet Union there were toys that were considered the favorite of entire generations.
Don't put your baby toddler to bed
Until now, in many families somewhere on the mezzanine you can see a tumbler (Vanka-vstanka). This bright red toy delighted or desperate toddlers who tried to put her to bed. Due to the internal sinker, the tumbler, without external forces acting on it, is in a strictly vertical position.
My cheerful, sonorous ball …
A red ball with blue and white stripes was in every Soviet family. Football, bouncers, pioneerball - this ball was universal and suitable for all yard games.
Constructor is every boy's dream
A metal construction set is the dream of any Soviet boy and not only. Everything could be made from these details: from a simple stool to a complex model of an airplane.
A little shake - completely different colors, a different pattern, a different mood …
The kaleidoscope was something of a fantasy. Color changing patterns excited the mind. Perhaps everyone wanted to know what "magic" is hidden in him. When the kaleidoscope was broken, there was no limit to disappointment, since only mirrors and a few colored glass were inside.
The striped whirligig was humming la la la
Iron, plastic, emitting some whistling sounds - this is exactly what the whirligig was in Soviet times. In addition to spinning around its axis, this toy also developed excellent hand motor skills. The child needed not only to press on the rod, but also to keep the balancing whirligig in motion.
"I got a" snake "in my hands, Not an evil adder, puzzle"
The inventor and sculptor Rubik gave the world not only the world famous puzzle - the cube, but also the "snake". This toy, consisting of 24 triangular prisms, allowed for the construction of various shapes.
Fifteen is a great game to kill time
Fifteen games developed logic and thinking, and were also an excellent option to "kill time". It is for this reason that adults often themselves rearranged the chips from place to place.
Serious table hockey battles
Despite the fact that table hockey was a toy game, battles between rivals were really organized. In order to win, the players used tricks: they bent the sticks to the figures, changed the springs for a stronger blow. Children in the Soviet Union did not have computers and other gadgets, which is why their childhood was saturated with bright colors. 35 atmospheric photographs of Soviet children will tell you exactly how you need to spend time so that the memories of joy and boundless happiness remain in your soul.
