Being a kid in the 80s was great! We had awesome toys, great outdoor adventures, and cereal! Yes, cereal was a huge part of growing up as a kid and the toys that came with it made it even better! Check out these 10 vintage cereal box toys that we all got and collected as kids.


1. Bike Spoke Reflectors
