We had several huge tubs full of Legos, but we would sort them. We built huge multi-room mansions, capitol buildings, and all the rest of cities. We also built lots of castles. We once built a big dam after going on vacation to the Columbia River. Vacation is where most of our ideas came from.
We also used our big sofa cushions to build forts and spacecraft. And we played our equivalent of Calvinball.
I'd have to say most of my childhood toys involved a lot of imagination. We would build the actually set of Legos only once, then go build something bigger and better. We also had model railroads when we were in high school. So I spent a lot of time building things without instructions.
I was a pretty voracious reader as a kid. I don't remember any huge favorites, but I read all kinds of things.
