    Born in ‘66 and feel that I was blessed to have grown up when I did. My friends and I had our bikes, our imaginations, and unlimited ideas on things to do for fun. Saturday mornings were pure magic with cartoons and cereal commercials. Who here remembers pestering your mom to let you buy every box of cereal that had a prize in it?

Thank God we have people like Johnny who Preserve a part of our history! This has been my sanity and my enjoyment. I am forever grateful for these videos and those like them. I love reading these comments especially in these trying times. People have become anti-social. I go to appointments everyone's on their phones playing games. No one addresses other people to say hello or have a little friendly conversation. I'm not used to this. I don't want to know someone's life story , just a pleasant little hello and exchange some pleasantries. Maybe I'm Wrong! I hope everyone's well and staying strong! Love from New England ❤

    It's ashame kids nowadays don't know good quality cartoons . I was born in 67 and probably around 70 and 71 really started watching Saturday morning cartoons. I also had the Rockem Sockum robots.

    I was born in 1960 and I remember the Beatles cartoon and the Monkees. But I had forgotten about the Jackson 5, the Hudson Brothers and the Osmond Brothers. Wow! You brought back so many great memories for me. What a great time it was for us to be a kid! Especially the games for we were never board. My favorites were Ker Plunk, Battleship, Spill The Beans, Trouble and more. Does anyone remember Lincoln Logs and the Sorry game? I miss those days and wish they'd bring back the old cartoons. Kids today would enjoy them. I am so grateful to have experienced all that!

    I remember waking up at 6am to watch Davey and galiath, mr magoo just to mention a few to start off the morning. Memories of my grandmother who lived with would make me my breakfast, soft boiled egg. Sometimes French toast or cereal… and I’d sit all morning and watch all of these shows until noon right after the bugs bunny road runner hour then I’d go out and play with my friends.

      We lived in northern SD county but our antenna got good to great reception. We usually got 12 of the 13 channels on our TV dial!

    other vintage morning, afternoon, evening shows. Same with music groups/5-8.00 concerts with three top bands on the bill. The variety of legendary bands was endless, feeling the well would never run dry.

      I just want the good parts back. I could have done with out the divorce and moving every friggin year, and the social problems that resulted from always being 'the new kid'. Too many rules and restrictions as a child too. Objectively, it wasn't that great.

    '65 here. Going through really rough times in this new world order of things and this is EXACTLY what I needed. To be reminded of what I gratefully got to live and experience as a kid growing up in the 60s/70s: the sights, sounds, smells, free-spirited and playful adventure outdoors - ALL DAY - and all over, wood panelling, loud prints, macrame, and the COOLEST CARS EVER!! ... (mind you, in 20-30yrs from now, kids born in the 90s are going to be saying the exact same thing about their own era - well, except for the unsupervised and adventurous playtime outdoors) ... every sense came rushing back to me. Seriously the best time to grow up! Thanks for this : ). I wish all post 70s kids could have experienced the things we had growing-up.

    I was born in 1970 and this video was just a wonderful trip down memory lane. We didn’t have a lot growing up but looking back, it was a great time to be a kid. The toys were better quality because everything wasn’t made in China, and the shows on TV were much better. It makes you look at today’s shows and cartoons-the difference is just sad.

    I remember all these great toys as a kid. I never got to play with any of them because we were too poor. However, my dad made all our toys. He would get a big box 5‘ x 5‘ and tell us it was a cave, go explore. He’d get us a ball of yarn and tell us it was a slinky go play. For stocking stuffer he would make those paper footballs and put them in our stockings. We always knew what it was because the stockings had holes. And most of time that was the only pair of socks we had. Dad will go outside during the summer and dig a hole about 2 foot deep about 8 foot wide fill it with water. And he would say I’m taking you to the pool today. That water was Muddy but it was sure cool on those hot summer days. We always had plenty of food because of the food stamps. The government provided. I think we got about 850 a month in food stamps. So dad really didn’t have to work.

Many are addicted to their smart phones, they are constantly quenching our thirsts for media and entertainment and as for the toys that we play with now, can be mechanical, can also be psychedelic. Whatever we choose, awareness is the key of their benefits or subtractions to our lives.
