50 Things From The 1970s, Kids Today No Longer Do!

50 Things From The 1970s, Kids Today No Longer Do! Remember when kids in the 1970s rode in truck beds, taped songs off the radio, and stayed out until the streetlights came on? This nostalgic countdown walks through 50 everyday seventies childhood experiences that kids today have never known. Climb into the way-back of the family station wagon, sniff a fresh purple ditto sheet, and circle every toy in the Sears Wish Book. Feel the sting of a hot metal slide in July, the clunk of an eight-track switching mid-song, and the crackle of a CB radio on a family road trip. There are lawn darts, Pet Rocks, mood rings, Saturday morning cartoons, drive-in double features, and those endless Star Wars lines that wrapped around the block. Stick around to the very end for the one memory that sums up a whole decade, and tell us in the comments which of these you did as a kid.
