Hippity Hops

Metal Roller Skates that clamped to your shoes that you needed a key to tighten

Bozo the Clown and Captain Kangaroo

(This seems a popular one) Going out to play without leaving a schedule.

Lady Sidhe's list of cartoons are the ones that I watched in College. Wacky Racers, Yankee Doodle Pigeon, The Jetsons, The Flintstones, The Monkees ... That was a classic Saturday morning. (I may be wrong about the Flintstones ... weren't they in prime time? I know childhood repeats were sometimes on Saturdays),

Original Star Trek.

Batman, with Adam West and Burt Ward

Silly Putty and Superballs

Banana seats and coaster brakes. I would probably do myself a serious injury if I tried to ride a modern bicycle. I never had gears to contend with, and never had hand brakes

Getting your plaster cast signed by all your friends after you fell off playground equipment and your parents didn't sue whoever built it

Cans with pull tabs that you could make stuff out of
