[@debrahitchman416]

They are all good presents , they were lucky children

[@kentuckylady2990]

We were living in eastern Kentucky and were cash poor. I would have called these children rich.

@@kentuckylady2990 it must suck to be poor...

This video is amazing!! A 1952 Christmas home video is a treasure!!! 🎅🏼🤶🏼♥️👏🏼 I was not born till 1958! .... Thank you so much for posting this video!!!! I noticed that there was an I love Lucy & Desi Arnaz picture!

[@Midik5925]

Nice. Thank you. Anyone else notice Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball?

[@lauranorwar]

David Alcarez I did. Couldn’t figure out exactly what it was though.

[@Midik5925]

@@lauranorwar I have been wondering the same thing. It is difficult to tell. Only recognize their picture

[@florencecavallaro4599]

yes i did//she put out a baby doll back then//you can buy it today as well.

[@gregt2022]

Oh those 50's toys and a quality movie camera saved it all to history!

[@vintagehomemaker9338]

The only gift that required electricity was the train. Everything else was "kid powered". It was great to see the children being ACTIVE !!

[@trixier6505]

Oh, I got a royal blue Schwinn bike like that one a few years later than this movie. Wonderful footage!

[@zzzzxxxx341]

Wow, Merry Christmas in advance to all!!! 🎉🍬☃️🎄🍉🎂🥰🎊🍷🙏🍒🎄☃️🎉

[@RobMacKendrick]

I was the age of the young boy in this footage in the early 60s; fascinating to see how little was different. (We had that train; our bikes were about the same; my sister had a baby coach like the one seen here...) Thanks for the upload!

[@clarysl18]

That was early 50s

[@lindauribe6872]

Christmas was magical back then.

[@sheriheffner2098]

My uncle Boyce has a genuine Lionel train that makes real smoke and whistles like a real train. It has a long round track and r has teeny bits of real coal. He is 73 years old. Your train reminds me of the train.

[@miriambucholtz9315]

Seeing that bike reminded me that I had those training wheels, too. I wanted them because I liked the way they looked. I only needed them for a couple weeks and my father was not happy.

[@lindauribe6872]

Just like my Christmases growing up.

[@hoosierdeb21]

I was born in 1952.... this is interesting. Thanks

[@Jmcsj02]

Wow. What a wonderful video.My Dad was 4 yrs old Christmas of 52.You guys were lucky to have a video camera back then!

[@RobMacKendrick]

Movie camera. And I concur!

[@Arzuna.EDITZ.]

Super 8 or 16 with real film...

[@kentuckylady2990]

Wow! We were so poor in 1952 but I did get a tricycle.

[@sugarplumenigma4850]

The ice cream cups were amazing! Lol

[@ebayerr]

Cool vintage toys!

[@thehobbyzoo6124]

that silver jet liner was amazing!

[@vonicarlo9108]

Eu gostaria de na minha infância ter tido um Natal assim , mas o que tinha era pobreza. As familias dos EUA fizeram bem em proporcionar esta alegria para as crianças .

[@robharding4028]

I would have to say , looking at the presents on show , this household was quite well off for the time, Those children must have wonderful memories from this time,

[@janejames9173]

Special.❤️❤️❤️

[@shawnmalone9711]

I know you heard this before but.... Just think those toys would be worth a lot of money if you kept them!😄😄😄😄

[@paulfrancis8836]

I was 1 year old then.

[@sheriheffner2098]

❤

[@ssfinch4761]

I love Lucy! ❤

[@alank5560]

Kids got a lot for that time period........but all parents who grew up in the depression made sure their kids got what they didn’t.......human nature I guess.

[@florencecavallaro4599]

My oldest daughter lived in texas for a bit//fortbliss//

[@angito7774]

Bellissimo video

[@cynthiacorcoran9389]

The fishing I was at in the 60s.

[@Petemonster62]

It appears that there are some other Holidays filmed as well - like Easter or a Church Festival with the children's " Fish Pond " game!

[@richardmckrell4899]

Trains were the worst toy ever.
