This list might make you feel nostalgic but it won’t stir up a single emotion for your kids. Check out this list of toys and other innovations that kids today simply wouldn’t know how to operate:
#10 – The Phone Book. Now that we have mobile phones that save our numbers and Google to search for any old numbers, phone books have become obsolete.

#8 – Rotary dial telephones. You may recognize these from museums?
#7 – Video rental stores. Before instant access to movies, people had to actually go to the store, purchase the video and return it… on time!
#6 – Beepers (or pagers). Cheap and reliable cell phones sent these early-day communicators the way of the dinosaurs.
