A Trip Down To Memory Lane With Childhood Games

Who can forget the frustration that came along with trying to set up the game Mousetrap? Made by Hasbro, in 1963, the game remains a favorite of kids everywhere and a nightmare for the parents who will inevitably have to assemble it. Players work against each other to trap their opponent’s mouse in the giant trap while saving their own. 

Being that it was a three-dimensional game kids got to see the trap slam down over their opponents rather than simply being told it happened. To avoid having to rebuild our mousetrap, we thought it was best to avoid the hour of frustration and just leave the game out already assembled rather than rebuild it constantly.
