And who can forget when a string with a knot was a creative toy?

Yes! And playing elastics at school - man, I was a champion at the elastic! I drove my nan crazy, I'm sure lol

Never needed to do that. I would take the cube apart and put it back together.

OH MY GOODNESS!! You still have yours!!

First one is long gone. This is the second one and has the solution directions with it. You can see it's dusty from not being touched in a very long time.

We bought one for our kids. Oldest son solved it within a few minutes and I never did. No matter how I scrambled it he could solve it in less than a minute. I went and found something to do in the garden after that.

I don't remember if anyone has mentioned Penny Loafers that kids actually put pennies in and wore to school.

I remember when music was good. Been a while but due to my extensive cassette collection its just a button push away

My cousin could also solve the Rubix Cube within minutes. I wish I could remember the exact time. We'd mix it up and he'd solve it so fast! My daughter and I were just talking about that this week. I should see if my cousin still remembers his record time.
