I also had a toy from Matel. You could heat up a cube of plastic and it would turn into a sorta dinosaur. I remember the HOT warning  labels on that toy   :th_10444:

Tiny Tears doll, blue willow tea set, red & chrome table and chairs,
and giant teddy bear in front of a Charlie Brown Christmas tree!

Bicycle, trampoline and tire swing.

My dad and grandpa decided to build us kids a playhouse, once the frame was up we had so much with it we begged them not to complete the thing.  We spend hours and hours on that frame, sawing boards, hammering nails and climbing around like monkeys.
