Most cars these days look fairly bland, but in the 50's, our cars were big, bright, and fun! We Got Dressed Up for Birthday Parties. And sometimes there was even a pony there! We Played in the Streets: We didn't have to text our friends back in the day - we'd all just come outside and get to playing! Gas Was Very Cheap: On some days, it was only $0.20 a gallon, and beyond that, the people at the station could also fix just about anything!

The Drive-In Was The Place to Be: This 1950's photo from South Bend, Indiana shows how popular they were! Car Seats Were More Like Couches: THat's right - they were big, long, and you could slide all the way across!

Just One Hula Hoop Wasn't Enough: Some of us could do multiple at a time! We didn't Text, But We Did Pass Notes! And we were experts at not getting caught! We Had Xylophones That We Kept on a Pull String. That's right - there was nothing like the Pull a Tune! We Got Bottled Cokes and Loved Them: THat's right - no cans or plastic bottles back then.
