1970 Toy Trends Add Realistic and Fantastical Dolls
The 1970 Christmas toy line mixes lifelike dolls from Peg Pen Pal to Baby Luv'n Care with features like moving parts lighting and pill interactions. New fashion dolls offer wig wardrobes and stage shows while an expanding line of talking bilingual dolls appears. Animal models include Kennel Club breeds and quirky Knick Naks. The Super Easy Bake Oven and a brick making set reflect safety features and kid friendly design.

Britons skip cards or run ads in The Times to send greetings or excuses. Many ads joke about not sending cards while others donate to charity. Some appear under Court Circulars with royals or famous names, announcing noncards or well wishes for New Year.
