The Little People were awesome. Although not to eat, I do not know about that.

But (whitefonted for disturbingly funny Fisher Price Little People story)once we went to clean out a barn owned by the local radio station so we could have a concert in there (the band went on to become quite big in the Christian world, which I think is funny.) and there, hanging from the light rope (it was one of those bare bulbs with the little thread hanging down from it, you know.) was a Little Person. Hanging by the neck. 'Cause, you know, no other place on their bodies to hang from. I got all upset (but not so upset that I would reveal my upsetness to the other teenagers there, of course, cause that's how I roll) and discreetly rescued it. And took it home. It sat on my desk for years. Didn't seem the worse for its attempted execution. Hee.

I still miss my Little People schoolhouse with the drop-down chalkboard, and the littel plastic carousel for recess.

We had a combination of plastic and wooden-bottomed Little People, unless my memory is faulty.

Aw! You saved him!

haunted house, something with dragons

Oooh! I remember the airport and the garage, but not those.

Our own Nutty both stuffed a peanut up her nose (at 3, on a dare from a neighbor boy)

And my mother called up my father (a doctor) and he said, "Oh, eventually it'll fall out." I had no idea people actually had to get their nostril-stuck items removed professionally!

Old-style Fisher Price, but in the plastic era. I think it was the green white dude with a bald head.

No, no, we had the Sesame Street set. The green white dude with the bald head was Mr. Hooper. The dude stuck in my mouth? Gordon.

Ooh! We definitely had that schoolhouse. I remember that carousel. My own schoolhouse did not have a carousel, it turned out. I felt it was lacking and I was promised a carousel.

We had the schoolhouse too - I thought the wall/chalkboard was awesome! We also had the farm, which I was vaguely annoyed with for pertetuating the myth that "all farms have pigs and horses in addition to cows." But my fave was the gas station, with the elevator and the ramps for cars to drive down.

We had the farm.

I think we had Little People actually made out of wood. But I could be misremembering.

Gordon.

Gordon had an orange body.

something with dragons

The castle. It was, to no surprise, my all time favorite.

looks around

I still have it at my grandma's. She had to go buy a new one when my siblings and cousins were born cause I wouldn't let anyone play with mine.

We have a bunch of old skool Little People for Franny. I hope neither she nor her brother try to eat them.

We had (and still have) the house, the farm, the garage, and possibly one other that I'm not remembering right now. The farm still says "moo" when you open the door. The house was my very favorite.

Yay for the rescued Little Person!
