Lisa Frank Stuff

The iconic artist, Lisa Frank, made a fortune selling anything and everything cutesy and neon, basically, to all the girls all over America. From stickers, to notebooks, pens to even clothing, she made her mark all over the world with her illustrations that would go on to sell millions. If these brightly colored drawings don’t remind you of your childhood, who knows what will.

Silly Putty

Before the days of slime and play dough lived Silly Putty, a sticky-ish, beige, pliable substance that kids could spend hours using. You could mold it, bounce it, even allow it to drip like liquid almost, and you could even mold it into a crazy amount of shapes. It’s a sure reminder that life before was surely a simpler time, and that sensory play is still as effective today as it was then.
