Hello all you wonderful people!

We all hope you have a great "spring" in your step today!

We bet you didn't know this, but today is international Slink day. Yes, the Slinky (created in 1940's) is a toy made of metal which offers some fun and excitement during the day. Experts say that the Slinky toy was originally a mistake, and they were originally made for something else but turned out to be way better than what they were intended to be used for. The Slinky as a toy is great for inspiring creativity, and for letting your imagination run wild. The Slinky offers a unique and playful experience without having limits. You can learn more about international Slinky day HERE.

The Slink for many is a hallmark of childhood toys, of yesterday's before we had iPads and computers. Dare we say a simpler time? Who doesn't remember jumping into a sandbox or playing on a beach with a colorful bucket? Using that bucket to build sand castles in which our imaginations could run wild before the sea took it away. Or even yo-yos, a never-ending source of untangling frustration, but also exciting moments when you execute a perfect "walking the dog" maneuver the first time.

Perhaps, a childhood toy is even a nostalgic memory of a doll or action figure. Did you take these small friends on adventures somewhere, or have a lovely tea party? The nostalgic memories of childhood toys, we should all have them… somewhere in our minds.

That memory is what brings us to today's challenge!

_{Ahhh, memories.}
