Not sure about them being a favourite toy, but these kept us occupied for hours, trying to do the tricks without doing ourselves serious damage!
Clackers
My mum wouldn’t let me have these cos she said they would break my wrist …. spoilsport! :(
Think they were banned at primary school for the same reason (or more likely cos the sound of 300 of them at playtime would have driven the teachers mad!!!) :D
I can honestly say as a little girl when I cuddled up to golly it never occurred to me I was was being racist :? I often wonder what happened to him, he is long gone but I miss golly :(
also clackers yep i remember them,but in our part of the world im sure we called them “knockers” i tried to do them once band bruised my knuckles :oops:
