8 Banned Children's Toys From Yesteryear
From the look of the banned toys on this list kids used to have much more to worry about then windowless vans and strangers with candy.
Home atomic energy kits, Derringer belt buckles that really burned, and giant darts you tossed in the air and hoped didn't put somebody's eye out, now those are some really good reasons to keep an eye on your kids during playtime!
Bucky Balls, on the other hand, really don't belong on this list, but some people ruin the fun for everyone...
Buckyballs DO belong on the list... one swallowed by an infant isn't much of an issue, but 2 can KILL them.
