Kids Today Probably Wouldn't Survive Our Toys, Especially This One

By Tanya
Lately it seems as though kids are being kept in plastic bubbles to keep them safe. Well, back in the 90s that is not how it went. We were expected to play outside, ride out bikes, and only come home when it was dark out. We also had toys that were WAY different than kids' toys are now. They weren't really focused on keeping kids bruise free, but instead, focused on expending all that pent up energy. A lot of toys from the past wouldn't be made today, maybe because they had such weird commercials, or maybe because they were

You May Have Seen The New Characters, But You Probably Don't Know Who They Replace

By Tanya
There is nothing that is sacred, nothing that is left untouched, and nothing that is immune from a remake. The My Little Pony remake isn't new at all, but when you look at the old and new shows together, it's beyond upsetting.The original My Little Pony show came out in the 80s and then there was a follow up called My Little Pony Tales in the early 90s. My Little Pony Friendship is Magic came out in 2010 and they really went all out on a new look and style of our favorite pony friends. I'm not going to

11 Things All 90s Kid Absolutely Wanted To Have In Their Bedroom

By Tanya
There were a lot of awesome things that became popular (or had a resurgence) in the 90s and therefore our bedrooms got decorated in the very best way possible. We all had these enormous wish lists of things we absolutely needed and every TV show would add something new to that list. Can you remember all the things you thought would make for excellent decor? Here are 15 of the must-haves from the 90s! 1. A Big CD PlayerPretty much everyone had one like this: But we all REALLY wanted one like this: 2. A Lava LampThey obviously weren't invented

It Seems Like Kids In Every Generation Had One Of These, Did You?

By Tanya
There are some toys that are passed through the generations as though they are a precious relic that should be treasured forever. The See N' Say is of course one of these toys. They first became popular in the 1960s and have just been remade year after year so kids will always know exactly what the cow says (spoiler, it's moo). They've changed a lot over the years, and each and every one will bring back a special memory to someone. We all had different versions, but they all were perfect. Take a look and see if yours is in

Here Are The 10 Beanie Babies That You Need To Dig Out Of Storage So You Can Retire Early

By Tanya
If you grew up in the 90s, there are most likely some of these TY Beanie Babies hanging around your house or your parent's house packed away in a box. Well, it might be time to finally cash in on that investment because there are actually quite a few worth some decent money now! Sure, there was always the rumor that buying beanie babies would make you rich, but when the whole fad went out of style, the value of a lot of these guys dropped significantly. All of us with shelves upon shelves of beanie babies were left with

Doodle Bears Were The Best Toy And Don't Try To Tell Me Otherwise

By Tanya
Toys in the 90s were a lot different than they are now. Kids these days don't really seem to notice anything that isn't attached to an iPad, but back when we were kids teddy bears and coloring books reigned supreme. The day they combined those two things into one? Absolute magic. The Doodle Bear came out in the mid-nineties and holy moly were they ever huge! Everyone wanted one! I mean, I know I did (and honestly still do).Such a simple concept too, all they were was a bear that was washable so kids could draw all over their

10 Times The Little Critter Books Were Full Of Attitude

By Tanya
One of the best parts of being a kid was the books. There were so many amazing choices, but there was one that most kids seemed to love more than the rest. The Little Critter series of books by Mercer Mayer were just the greatest. There was one for basically every situation you could think of and there were always new ones coming out. The thing that I have recently noticed is that the Little Critter has quite the attitude. He is so sassy all the time! It's pretty crazy, and if you don't believe me, I have proof.10

No 90s Home Was Complete Without These Little Kids

By Tanya
If you had to think of one little knick-knack that would remind you of the 90s, it would absolutely have to be a Precious Moments ceramic figurine right? Those little kids were just about everywhere. Not only were there the ceramic figures that your Grandma would give you for your birthday, you could also get the coloring books, the collections of stories and even toys!  They were pretty cute so I can see how they ended up so popular. They were big-eyed kids who always shared the sweetest sentiments like "I love my grandma" or just a simple "I

If You Can Remember These Then Your Childhood Was Awesome

By Tanya
When we were kids, there were no iPads or smart phones. We had to have our fun with good old fashioned books, well not totally old fashioned because ours made noise. Many of our favorite story books had a bar on the side that had buttons that would play a sound effect that would fit into the story. Pretty much every Disney story or popular TV show got its own little book with specific sounds that were customized to it so it wasn't like you would read an Aladdin book and hear noises from The Lion King. The books would

Do You Remember Playing With These As A Kid? They Look Totally Different Now!

By Tanya
Every 90s Girl had or dreamed about having a Polly Pocket. A plastic little case that opened up to reveal a miniature doll house for your little peg people to play in. They were honestly 6 inches big MAX. The little figures were only a couple centimeters tall and had a circular base so you could stand them up in various places in the little case. They were so popular, practically everyone remembers having one or at the very least, knew some who did. These little dolls came in a variety of different cases that each had their own theme.
