My husband also never had a childhood and we're working through that. I legit let him buy puppets from thrift stores and collect them and let him buy a set of army men (and I'm a minimalist so that shit bugs me). It's strange, I know. Fuck, I bought the man a drum set because he wanted one as a kid.
Here's what I have:
1. Act silly, dance around like an idiot to silly music;
2. Build a fort out of sheets and blankets and hang out in there;
3. Make shadow puppets with your hands
4. Do cartwheels outside (I still do this)
5. CARTOONS!!!!! Old school good ones
I'm sure there's a ton more, but I'm just a 52 year old child who doesn't want to type anymore, so I don't have to, LOL.
