For you seniors-think back
#62
There was a lady in the LQS Saturday, buying ribbon for a MayDay Celebration at one of our schools, so maybe they are going to bring it back. I hope so. Such fun things our kids and grandkids are missing out on.

ohh yes! I would LOVE to relive the 50's and early 60's. Doncha think we all felt safer and happier? Or was that because we were young and didn't know any better?....there was definitely LESS media - and that IS a +!

He always took his nap cuddled in his carriage on the front porch.
OMG, who would ever do that these days?

I was a Presbyterian in the 50's in Newark, NJ. Childrens' Day was the second Sunday in June. It was the last of Sunday School for the year until Rally Day (the first Sunday in Sept). There was a program of all the church school classes held in the church sanctuary for the entire church. Of course we wore dresses with filly socks. That was the norm.

I don't remember dancing around the maypole but remember seeing it. Do recall making cute little paper baskets and filling them with flowers. We would sneak up to a neighbors door, placing the basket in front of it, ringing the bell and running away.
