I remember a handsoap that had a toy in the center. We used to go to our grandmother's house, and wash, and wash to get to the middle! I have yet to find anyone who recalls this soap. It was early 60s. I may just still have the plastic grey elephant that was in the middle of one bar. 
Oh my gosh, that triggered a very faint memory for me - I do remember a soap that had a toy in the middle, and also a soap that had "hair", like it was all fuzzy. Were they the same thing?
Edited: They WERE the same thing! I just found this site for memories about retro toys, etc.: Feeling Retro and there it was - Fuzzy Wuzzy Soap! I think all of us "oldsters" should check this site out!
