The perfect gift for the baby boomer in your life. Do you remember taking the train to the seaside? The purple stains of iodine on the knees of boys in short trousers? Knitted bathing costumes? Then the chances are you were born in or around 1950. To the young people of today, the 1950s seems like another age, but for those of us born around then, this era of childhood seems like yesterday. From waking up to ice on the inside of the windows, washing in a tin bath by the fire and spoonfuls of cod-liver oil, home life was very different to today. This delightful activity book will inspire and delight all those who grew up in the 1950s with games, quizzes, puzzles and lots of other nostalgic things to do. SELLING POINTS: ?
