heard on Class 95 this morning that the traditionl mama stores are in threat of extinction.


do you have any fond memories of mama stores?

i loved to browse mama stores when i was small.. i remember they sell some simple toys, like those colorful paper balls, cha-tek, and there was this little metal tube (like a tiny toothpaste tube) filled with this strong-smelling gluey substance that you squeeze onto the end of a thin plastic straw and blow it up into a sticky little balloon.. errr... not sure anyone knows what i'm talking about... :siao: :siao: :siao:

oh yes there were also those Airplane trading cards used in card games where we compete wingspan, engine power etc..

yup, my primary school classmates and I would blow ballons almost everyday during recess and we enjoyed sucking and making a small hole to 'expand' it by blowing. After that, we stuck different ballons together and had a great time. However because it broke easily because they were so thin just slightly thicker than soap bubbles. I still see them being sold in some small shops now and then.

:celebrate: but it was the rage during the time for primary school kids and almost every kid would play that during recess

and my classmates and I loved skipping too. Those days we used rubber bands to join together to form a skipping rope and we also did high jumps and 'acrobatic' jumps also. Wonder if primary school girls still like them now?

Also the paper balls/kicking/passing to one another..
The 'guai guai' ones would play 5 stones made of beans.
It would be physical activities overall so we were healthier and thinner then... :evil:

pinky… that is called zero-point… yes… 1 inch above head, we did cartwheels for those who cant jump over that high…

In my time it was called 'yay-yay'. :skeptical:

I remembered 2 girls would hold the rope in a rectangular shape and anyone could just join and jumped
