Gumby. Barbie. Slinky. WHAM-O. Spirograph. Hot Wheels. Atari.

These toys--and the stories of the kids, parents, child-rearing experts, inventors, manufacturers, and advertisers they affected--reflect the dynamism of American life.

Senior exhibit developer and best-selling author Kate Roberts, along with senior curator Adam Scher, spotlight forty-five memorable toys, placing them in historical context and examining their development and launch, their impact on kids and the larger community, and their reflection of the social and cultural shifts of each decade.

The book, developed in conjunction with the national traveling exhibit of the same name, will include firsthand stories shared by adults who revered these toys as kids as well as research gleaned from primary sources and toy experts and collectors.

Kate Roberts is senior exhibit developer for the Minnesota Historical Society (MHS) and author of the best-selling book Minnesota 150. Adam Scher is a senior curator in the collections department at the MHS.

Nice scent
Scent: Baobab & Rosehip, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I buy this for my curly haired 3 year old daughter because of the ingredients being on the cleaner side. It has a very nice light smell (we’re very sensitive to any fragrance). It cleans her hair without stripping it

Wouldn’t recommend
Scent: Baobab & Rosehip, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The product itself was fine I suppose, but the container is horrible. I appreciate they are trying to use less plastic but the carton got soggy, misshapen and gross quickly.

Box
Scent: Baobab & Rosehip, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The I absolutely love the shampoo. I have to say that the packaging is super inconvenient. It’s very easy for me to overuse it in the shower and the consistency of the shampoo makes it stick together so it’s not like I can use a drop size come out in clumps.

A very mild shampoo
Scent: Baobab & Rosehip, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It’s like a watery jelly. It got my scalp and hair clean. It is such a mild shampoo that infuses moisture as well. The smell is light and divine of rosehips. I bought this to replace another brand (SM), and I have no regrets! I can’t wait to try some of their other products. Edited: A year later and Babo has blocked Canadians from ordering their products from Amazon! Such a shame as their products are wonderful. Just use a third party from the USA that will ship out to Canada.
