Were you an Easy-Bake Off gal? Or have your purchased this toy for your little one (something I cannot wait to do for Natalie)? Well, I thought you might appreciate that the Easy-Bake Oven has officially made it into the Toy Hall of Fame. I didn't even know that honor existed! I just had to share because this was one of my FAVORITE toys as a child.

The Easy-Bake Oven and Lionel model trains joined Mr. Potato Head, the Frisbee and 32 other classic but watt-free toys Thursday in the Strong-National Museum of Play's eight-year-old hall of fame.
Longevity is a key criterion for getting into the all-star lineup. Each toy must not only be widely recognized and foster learning, creativity or discovery through play, but endure in popularity over multiple generations. (source)
