Indoor Fireworks

Yes I remember these very well! You're not imagining things!

I can remember my Dad getting some for us in the late 70's/very early 80s. I also remember they were a bit **** compared with outdoor fireworks!

How did they work, smee - without setting the house on fire ?

Indoor Fireworks

Well they weren't exactly 'fire'works as we know them......I think one lit them but they didn't burn, as such, they just kind of went 'flop' and went out. One could use the coffee table when using indoor fireworks. They were more of a junior science experiment than a real firework!

Still, having said all that, thanks for bringing back yet more 70s memories....useless fireworks or otherwise, I sill want my youth back!!!

Do they still sell these? i would guess not,as they were rather rubbish.
I remember buying them from Habitat in the early 70's.
Habitat had a weird and wonderful selection of strange toys around about then

Dont forget the one which turned into a cats poo !

Sound slike a kid invented them, or had a chemistry set, can you still get those?

[Oggy]

I remember as a kid, using stuff from my mom's and heating various stuff up with a candle interesting results.......yucky too.
