About This Quiz

While some kids can't, most of us OG'S do. And while the '50s may have seemed like a really long time ago, especially in the toy industry, that is now marked by more innovation than ever, it really has been just a few years that have passed.

Today's favorites like Barbie, Pogo Sticks and Legos were also really popular.Â
