You should add Cabbage Patch Dolls :')

I might throw in basement dirt and firecrackers. Great list.

ditto prints…

Cigar smoke??? Nah, that doesn't bring back any childhood memories. What about Jolly Ranchers? I bought a big bag recently and when I opened it, I got a huge whiff of fruity candy goodness that brought be back to 3rd grade.

Does anybody recall that Gak smell?
Troll dolls?
Cabbage patch kids?
Hot grass? Or hot grass and water?

Maybe if your rich

Cigar smoke not so much but the stale scent of cigars having been smoked was likely part of the smell of old people or at least an uncle/grandfather/etc's coat or something. I can dig it.

Fur doll and baby lotion are too…

cigar smoke? explanation needed

elmer's glue ! color, cut, and paste was serious business.

Wait a minute, what does linoleum smell like? We had it in our kitchen when we moved and I never noticed anything. I think this is why the “Inert” line of Stinky Stickers never took off.

Blistex. And Hot, WET asphalt.

Great list. I had a grandfather who smoked cigars so I hit all of these. I'd add fresh bread too, because I had a cool mom.

cherry chapstick for sure

WTF? What kind of weird childhood did this person have, lol! I dont understand how these define childhood, except the toys and crayons, and maybe the inside of a tireswing. But, I probably smell dryer sheets more now, and I still smell grass, campfire, chlorine just as much. But wtf does the inside of a grocery freezer smell like?

The cigar one rings most true for me… but then again I smoked about 5 Cubans a day from the age of 5 up until 12.

i am wondering what some of these have to do with anyones childhood…

Hot freshly baked cookies and baked bread.
