Toy guns playing army with all of the kids in the neighborhood. We even played army with our toy guns in the woods behind the elementary school. Imagine that today.

I got my GT Mach One when I was 10 (1985) and was always on that bike. Wish I still had it today. Those old BMX bikes are going for good money today.

Baseball glove and a hard ball were played with more than any toy. I did have some heavy metal toy trucks and cars along with about 5 divisions of army men and their half tracks tanks and jeeps with an  Army themed train set. I got my first fishing pole at age 7 and my first fiberglass stick bow at 10

I grew up in the city and when I was young stick ball was a favorite for us poor kids. All you needed was a pimple ball and a old broom stick. Bases might have been a telephone pole, a smashed tin can or, a particular concrete square on the side walk.

If you gave a kid a broom stick and a little ball to play with today, they would probably call the Division of Youth and Family Services to Investigate you for child abuse.
