Groovy patches to sew on your jeans...
Candy smokes...
Nice, sturdy CorningWare (My mom had this exact set.)...
Rotory phones with cords that kept you confined...
Sleek and stylish camp trailers...
Extremely high slides. Who cared about safety? (Parents were more chill back then.)
Crunch Cones. Loved them!!
Drive-In's. There's nothing like watching a movie, in a car, wearing your pajamas.
Portable 8 Track Tape Players. It was no big deal that the tape would switch tracks mid-song...
Happy Days. They were sooo coool.
Table-top Juke Boxes in diners. Who cared if the booth right beside you was listening to something else?!

You Know You're a Child from the 70's when...
1) "All skaters, change directions" means something to you.
2) There was nothing strange about Bert and Ernie living together.
3) You remember wanting to stay up to see Mr. Bill on Saturday Night Live.
4) Schoolhouse Rock played a HUGE part in how you learned things like grammar, math and history. (A big hint here is if the only way you can recite the Preamble to the Constitution is by singing it.)
5) You learned to swim at about the same time "Jaws" came out... and still carry the emotional scars to prove it.
6) You recall when Love's Baby Soft was in every girl's Christmas stocking.
7) Most of the fillings in your mouth are directly related to Bazooka or Bubble Yum.
8) You know who shot J.R.
9) This rings a bell: "My name is Charlie, and they work for me."
and my personal favorite...
10) You remember the days when "safe sex" meant "my parents are going out of town".
