Etch-a-Sketch

The classic toy has a long and rich history. Even some of our grandparents probably remember playing with these during their original release in the ‘60s. However, it maintained its popularity through the decades, and can also take credit for being popular to this day. We can’t leave it out of this list because it is one of the most iconic toys of the ‘90s.

The 1995 animation film Toy Story also featured this toy. Woody used it to draw and write messages. The popularity of the film did wonders to the sales of Etch-a-Sketch. Every kid who loved the movie wanted to have one. And most of all, it was fun to play with. All you needed to do was turn the knobs and create your own masterpiece.
