I'm at the point where I cannot walk by a toy store without being sucked in the door and down the aisles. And I especially love it when I come cross toys that I enjoyed as a kid and that are still on shelves.
Can you believe it's the 50th anniversary of Fisher-Price's Little People®? The first Family Play Farm hit stores in 1968 and it has since been reissued. The new Play ‘n Go Farm includes a farmer, sheep and cow figures, a tractor, and other farm-related items. The colors are just as vivid as you remember and they've kept the retro look and feel. The farm retails for $17.95 and is appropriate for ages one and up.
In honor of the anniversary, Mom Central and Fisher-Price are giving away two Play ‘n Go Farms.
Here's how to enter to win:

I love little people! I don't remember having a bunch of them as a child, but I remember friends who did. My son is going to be one on June 4th and this would be an awesome 1st birthday gift

My husband's parents have some pieces of the set they had when he was little that our little ones love to play with. It would be great to have one for our kids.

I love these products. The kids I nanny for have a huge collections of them. They are great! I especially love the animals. Kids love to make animal noises when they play with them. Its a great learning tool on so many different levels. I would LOVE to get some for my step son. He is six but he is a bit delayed in some areas and I think he would really enjoy playing with this. He loves animals!

My daughter loves Little People--we even travelled to the Atlanta Zoo so she could attend the Little People 50th Birthday party! She would enjoy this toy.

We had a Little People farm; When the barn door opened, it sounded like a cow saying "Moo." What fun!
