Throwback Series The Toys We loved- Brandy's First two picks...

Today in our series about our favorite toys Brandy shares two of her favorites. A treasured Monkey and a much loved little doll!

Zippy the Monkey "One of my earliest memories of my toys was my Zippy Monkey. I’m thinking I got him around 1979 or 1980. I remember playing with my next-door neighbor, Aubrey, who was a few years older than myself. She had a Zippy Monkey and I fell in love with him. She let me borrow the toy until Santa delivered me one of my very own. I still remember the sound of the squeaker in his arm. "

Strawberry Shortcake "LOVE this doll so much! I think I got her in 1981 or I must have been 6. I played with this doll every day for years! I recently saw a vintage Strawberry shortcake in a Target store the other day; the scent flooded me with a ton of childhood memories."
