Cereal toys are one of the few childhood items that held a place in almost every New Zealand household over the last five decades. After a trip to the local dairy or supermarket, cereal packets bearing the tempting wording "Free gift inside!" or "Collect the whole set!" were brought home to young eyes that widened with excitement and anticipation over what was hiding within... While the cereal toys of today are better crafted, their predecessors of the 1950s through to the 1970s come from an age when toys were not as easily available. For many children of that time, real toys were often still expensive and only obtained on special occasions, therefore give-away toys in cereal packets were one way o make a significant contribution to the toy box... New Zealand Cereal Toys 1950-2000 will not only be a useful reference guide as it contains information on over 100 cereal (and other) toy sets but also re-kindle childhood memories of excitement and anticipation of opening a packet of cereal with an unknown toy inside.

Download and read online ebook Hello Girls & Boys! write by David Veart. This book was released on 2015-02-01. Hello Girls & Boys! available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Toys are fun—but they are also serious business, as David Veart makes clear in this remarkable story of New Zealanders and their toys from Maori voyagers to 21st-century gamers. Deploying the tools of archaeology and oral history, Veart digs through a few centuries of pocket knives and plasticine to take us deep into the childhoods of Aotearoa. His story explores how people made their fun on the far side of the ocean—the Maori and Pakeha learned knucklebones from each other; young Aucklanders established the largest Meccano club in the world; and Fun Ho!, Torro, Lincoln International, and Luvme helped to build a successful local toy industry under the shade of import protection. Hello Girls & Boys! covers the crazes and collecting, playtimes and preoccupations of big and little New Zealand kids for generations. With its memories of knucklebones and double happys, golliwogs and tin canoes, marbles and Meccano, Tonka trucks and Buzzy Bees, this is a seriously fun New Zealand toy story.
