As a kid I had a watch that glowed in the dark with radium on the dial
Then when I went in for shoes I used a fluoroscope https://www.orau.org/ptp/collection/shoefittingfluor/shoe.htm
These started being banned in 1957
I think I had the uranium kit

Kids could experiment with uranium back in the 1950's:

There is no more fun today due to toy safety concerns.
