I Can Relate to This!

A mother reflects on childhood stuff enjoyed by her kids today

Road to PSLE gets nostalgic and blogs about stuff from her childhood that survived to be enjoyed by her kids today:

This is what I found at home -
1) Colourful paper ball - you spend as much time blowing air into these things as you do hitting them about.
2) Biscuits with white/green/pink/yellow icing - I used to like to bite the icing off before popping the rest of the biscuit into my mouth.
3) Rabbit milk sweets - the only candy I know of with edible wrapper.
4) Square shaped candy with nut picture on the wrapper - I was never crazy about these but we didn’t have a very wide variety of candy back then.
These are today exactly as they were when I was a child.

the biscuits(1) are my favourite. almost everyone remembers 'someone else' eating the sugar and throwing the biscuit back into the tin. i have a friend in the army who always brings them to camp, so we've taken to calling them by his name, because they don't seem to have a generic name of their own!
