Sharing Toys From My Childhood With Charlie

This week Charlie and I was taking about toys I had as a child. So for Christmas this year I plan on getting some of these toys for Charlie. As I know there will be a few toys he hasn’t ever played with. So this morning as I was on Educents I found these items I plan on ordering this week to put up for Charlies Birthday.

The first new toy I want to order for Charlie is Paddle Tether Ball as I used to play it for hours as a child. In fact Paddle Tether Ball is one of the items we had at our school we could play during recess. I wonder if I will be able to bet Charlie and David when we play a Game? Most likely not but I will give it a try.

Product Description

In this classic game made more fun, kids have to think and move fast as they knock the foam ball back and forth around the pole using sturdy paddles.
Launch tether ball excitement to a new level of extreme action!

In this classic game made more fun, kids have to think and move fast as they knock the foam ball back and forth around the pole using sturdy paddles.

The goal is to make the entire tether wrap around the pole in your direction!

Play the classic way with the tether attached to the freely spinning hook at the very top.

Or, if you want to boost the intensity even more, attach it to the cork-screw-mounted hook – As the tether ball swings around the pole, the hook slides either up or down depending on which way it’s swinging.

The player to make the hook reach the end of the track in their direction wins the game!

Complete with an adjustable height and a sturdy base, the Paddle Tether Ball set easily knocks its predecessor out of the park.

The next item I would like to get Charlie is the Wham-O Slip Slide Classic as I know Charlie loves playing in the water and in Texas we could use this year round.
