Snopes reports on the finalists for this year's entry into the Toy Hall of Fame.


It irks me that formalized games are getting in. That's a different category of plaything in my opinion.


Whether or not "sand" counts as a toy is a philosophical discussion waiting to happen.



Of the current crop of candidates I'm most in favor of the Corn Popper. I had one of those when I was a kid, it was great fun. I had one far enough back that the handle was actually made out of wood.
