YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL IN THE 70s IF...
YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL IN THE 70'S IF...

You wore a rainbow shirt that was half-sleeves, and the rainbow Went up one sleeve, across your chest, and down the other.

You made baby chocolate cakes in your Easy Bake Oven and washed them down with snow cones from your Snoopy Snow Cone Machine.

You had that Fisher Price Doctor's Kit with a stethoscope that actually worked.

You owned a bicycle with a banana seat and a plastic basket with flowers on it (did it have a sissy bar, too?).

You learned to skate with actual skates (not roller blades) that had metal wheels.

You thought Gopher from Love Boat was cute (admit it!) and you Were absolutely in love with Randy from Emergency!

You had nightmares after watching Fantasy Island.

You had rubber boots for rainy days and Duck shoes for snowy days.

You had either a "bowl cut" or "pixie," not to mention the "Dorothy Hamill" because your Mom was sick of braiding your hair.

People sometimes thought you were a boy.

Your Holly Hobbie sleeping bag was your most prized possession.

You wore a poncho, gauchos, and crushed velvet.

You begged Santa for the electronic game, Simon.

You had the Donnie and Marie dolls with those pink and purple Satiny shredded outfits.

You spent hours in your backyard on your metal swing set with the trapeze . The swing set tipped over at least once.

You had homemade ribbon barrettes in every imaginable color.

You had a pair of Doctor Scholl's sandals (the ones with hard sole & the buckle). You also had a pair of salt-water sandals.

You wanted to be Laura Ingalls Wilder really bad; you wore that Little House on the Prairie-inspired plaid, ruffle shirt with the high neck in at least one school picture; and you despised Nellie Olson!

You wanted your first kiss to be at a roller rink.

Your hairstyle was described as having "wings" or "feathers" and you kept it "pretty" with the comb you kept in your back pocket.

You know who Strawberry Shortcake is, as well as her friends, Blueberry Muffin and Huckleberry Pie.

You carried a Muppets lunch box to school and it was metal, not plastic.

You and your girlfriends would fight over which of the Dukes of Hazzard was your boyfriend.

Every now and then "It's a Hard Knock Life" from the movie, "Annie" will pop into your brain and you can't stop singing it the whole day.

YOU had Star Wars action figures, too!

It was a big event in your household each year when the "Wizard of Oz" would come on TV. Your mom would break out the popcorn and sleeping bags!

You often asked your Magic-8 ball the question: "Who will I marry.

Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garrett, or Rick Springfield?"

You completely wore out your Grease, Saturday Night Fever, and Fame soundtrack record album.

You tried to do lots of arts and crafts, like yarn and Popsicle-stick God's eyes, decoupage, or those weird potholders made on a plastic loom. Pot holders - I believe they were called loom loopers".

You made Shrinky-Dinks and put iron-on kittens on your t-shirts!

You used to tape record songs off the radio by holding your Portable tape player up to the speaker.

You couldn't wait to get the free animal poster that came when you ordered books from the Weekly Reader book club. Double score if it was a teddy bear dressed in clothing.

You learned everything you needed to know about girl issues from Judy Blume books (Are you there God, It's me, Margaret.) ? unless you weren't allowed to read them!

You thought Olivia Newton John's song "Physical" was about aerobics.

You wore friendship pins on your tennis shoes, or shoelaces with heart or rainbow designs.

You wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer.

You had a Big Wheel with a brake on the side, and a Sit-n-Spin.

You had subscriptions to Dynamite and Tiger Beat.

You spent all your allowance on smurfs and stickers for your Sticker Album!

Re: YOU WERE A LITTLE GIRL IN THE 70s IF...
The Randolf Mantooth character on Emergency.....wasn't his name John or Johnnie? Personally, I always prefered the Keven Tighe character even if he was married and I can't remember his name.

But then, I was a little girl in the 60s and it was DAVID Cassidy, Bobbie Sherman or Leif Garrett and

I had streamers on my handlebars and

I had an Operation game and

I thought Pete Cochran of the Mod Squad was the dreamiest and

I had nightmares after.....hmmm, Bonanza??? Nah, TV was tame in the 60s and

We got to stay home on snowy days, and I hated snow so I didn't need boots anyway and

I had to wear dresses to school except when we went on field trips and

We had that same swing set but it had a glider instead of a trapeze and

We had real skates, too and

We wore our skate-keys on shoe strings around our necks and

We had scooters which made a big come back about ten years ago, but I think they call them something cooler now and

Our mothers brought out the popcorn for Dorothy and the gang once a year too!

Oh, I almost forgot, we wore plastic head bands to keep our hair out of our eyes....yep, in every imaginable color.
