Man, they need to bring back the SSP racers NOW!  Anything to get the kids up off the coach with their heads in the video games!

Omg. LIBBYLAND DINNERS=Your hippy parents are going out and Mom won't be cooking...it was referred to as "a TV dinner"....those were GREAT days!!!

[LadyGreenEyes964]

SO many memories! Totally forgot about those kid dinners, too!

i remember eating those kids meals, they were disgusting- and I wasn't a picky kid.

I wish lucky charms would go back to the solid color marshmellow candies. they don't even make any sense now.

@dukes0916 I loved libbyland meals and had them as a special treat once in a while. Those boxes were so much fun for a kid. I I agree they are an awful combo of unhealthy food choices but given the era, we barely had been exopsed to such choices prior. And i agree ...lunchables are worse.

@micmac99 Hardly. Whenever I encounter any of the girls from grade school I either get a dirty look or they throw their noses in the air lmao!

[micmac99]

@stomp919 OK let me guess. You and Susie are celebrating your 20th wedding anniversary this month.

0:30 I remember that commercial. Toys and their ads were FAR superior to what they have now. As far as toys that are not video game or computer based I mean.

the kids that started to dance in the lucky charms part made me Rotfl

Libbylind Kid's Meals! THATS what they were called! I ate those when I was in pre-school... and I've been trying to think of the name of them for nearly 40 years! (thanks!) The irony is that I was a picky eater & I still LOVED them. Everyone else seems to think they were awful, hence them being taken OFF the market! I remember the 'magic' angle in the drink was that it left swirled patterns of food-colered crystals on the bottom of the cup!
