34 Things Kids Who Grew Up In The 90's Will Remember

I may have been born in the 80's but I'm definitely a kid who grew up in the 90's. Watching my kids grown up now, looking at the programmes they watch and the toys they play with has me thinking about my childhood days and course how much better they were compared to now. There are so many things I'd like to remind you all of but I've condensed it down for you.

Here's 34 things that were great about the 90's

Playing out in the streets wasn't scary, parents didn't worry and of course the spoke beads on our bikes from our trusty cereal packets meant that you could here us from a mile away.

School play time was made fun with Pogs (until they were banned, rock and roll!)

Your best friends were a Tamagotchi that was always to eager to die.

Trolls with their amazingly colourful hair.

And Polly because at that point she actually did fit in your pocket.

The girls argued over who was better Barbie or Sindy.

The boys loved to ruin them with their Transformers and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

And everyone either had or wanted a Mr Frosty.

We all imagined being our favourite Power Ranger (I was definitely the pink one)

And our favourite theme tune belonged to Fresh Prince of Bel Air (you're singing it now aren't you!)

Reality TV was far away, we had the original Geordies that was Biker Grove.

Nickelodeon ruled with classics like

Clarissa Explains It All

And Kenan an Kel (Kel loves orange soda)

And I'm pretty sure we all wanted to be a contestant on Fun House.

Whilst weekends were reserved for Live and Kicking

And SM:tv

Then of course Saturday night tele meant Crystal Maze

Gladiators kicked arse, none of this XFactor bullshite.

And a man in a pink spotty suit entertained the nation.

Classic films were produced.

Jurassic Park

Pulp Fiction

Toy Story

And not forgetting we got to see Leonardo DiCaprio first, anyone remember that small film Titanic.

It was a time when boybands weren't fixed together, they were mates who could actually sing.

Oasis and Blur changed the music industry for the better.

Girl power took over the world, zig a zig aaa bitches.

And all this great music, we listened to on the top 40 charts every Sunday and recorded onto cassette tapes.

Shellsuits were out and poppers were in.

Then there were the fashion trends that are so good they've made comebacks like...

Choker necklaces

Dungarees

and high waisted jeans

We were the inventors of cocktails, remember mixing squashes to create a tropical sensation mmmm.

Drinking Sunny Delight

Nesquik

And who could forget the Tango advert!

The 90s as I remember it is a decade that was filled with all things carefree, fun and original, what are your favourite memories from way back then?
