I remember the 90s as a Child and I'm glad to say I grew up outdoors playing on my swing, climbing up trees (and often causing an injury falling from them too). My parent's didn't feel the need to be overprotective and I could be outside the house playing on my roller blades for hours. While home I'd watch Cartoon Network Johnny Bravo, Animaniacs and Are You Afraid Of The were my favourites along with Baywatch, Dinsoaur (not the mama) and Gladiator on a Saturday Evening. I also wore out my VHS of Lion King I'd get pocket money to get Crisps, Sweets and fizzy drinks. Life in the '90s was pure bliss. ☺️

Born in the 80s, grew up in the 90s and I'm actually writing a novel partially-set in the 90s. Thanks for taking me down memory lane but also novel research! Thanks, WatchMojo :-)

I wish to go back to the 90s so bad. Good times😊😊

I remember going to Blockbuster ALL THE TIME! I secretly kinda hoped it would be number one. There used to be a Blockbuster only 5 minutes away from my house so me and my family used to go there EVERY SINGLE WEEK until it closed down and I can’t even begin to tell you just how many of my favorite movies and TV shows that still hold true today I have discovered there from just browsing around through the countless hours we would spend there. We would usually spend anywhere from 30-60 minutes on average every time we went!

We sure do missed the old school Saturday morning cartoon shows.

I miss the 90's sometimes. The cartoons back then was amazing. Born in 1991.

Born in '86. My husband and I miss those days so much! We often just like talking about things from the 90s we did/were into. This was a fun trip down memory lane.

Born in 87, always loved growing up in the 90s 😘

[chelseacanales]

Good times. Man…I would love to relive those moments.

Being born in 1988 and growing up in the 90s was amazing! I miss it terribly

😎 👍 nostalgic 90's ♥️ feeling all warm and fuzzy inside 🥰💛

I stalked blockbuster for scream when it came out. I needed it for a slumber party. That pressure to come through was unbelievable.

I was born in 1988 so my entire childhood is the 90s and what I loved were things like
- playing with my friends outside, games like wallball, kickball, tag, hide and seek
- playing videos games like Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. I still remember when the Nintendo 64 came out and everyone wanted one it was so mind blowing playing in 3D graphics for the first time
- watching Power Rangers when it first aired and fighting over who was the green ranger and then white ranger lol
- preferring Burger King over McDonald's, wanted to be part of the Burger King Kids Club and the fries back then were honestly the best I hated when they changed the recipe
- fun toys like skip it, sooker boopers, giant water guns, boop it
- wanting to be part of a boy band when we got older like Backstreet Boys and trying to perform like them lol
- watching Jim Carrey movies
- watching Hey Arnold, The Simpsons, Batman, XMen, Spiderman, Captain Planet,
- wanting a Buzz Lightyear and Turbo Man doll
- skating outside, riding out bikes
- looking forward to book fairs at school
- eating out favorite cereal on Saturday morning while watching cartoons and watching All That which was like our SNL Snick At Night
- and honestly for us kids at the time we grew up just having fun getting along with one another, we didn't care about other race, ethnicity, sexuality, gender etc. We were innocent to all that, it seems like the more you try to have kids "aware" of it the more hate you create. If you take any lesson from us 90s kids know that you didn't need to teach us not to hate one another because we didn't. It's sad how kids are being to basically acknowledge others suffering only making them hate each other.

I feel like we had the best of both worlds, we spent enough time outside playing with friends but also had cartoons and movies. I remember when I wasn't allowed to take my tamagotchi to school so my mom had to care for it at work, she got some weird looks from her colleagues lol

[alisonarias]

OMG radio mix tapes 😊 when you got all the songs you wanted, oh the satisfaction 😘 kids now will never know this feeling

[ADDButterfly]

It feels good to know all these things. I had loved my Polly Pocket so much. Also, going to the movie store was how I ended up watching so many horror movies, never knowing how they would be, or if they were campy, B rated horror, or masterpieces.

Anyone miss these times SO much? So much simpler

My grandpa got my sister and me started with Beanie Babies! He had them on a bookshelf in his office, and Tabasco the Bull was the hardest one to get. I’m proud to be a 90s kid! Thank you for sharing this video!

[chelseylin]

Watching this just made me remember how much I looked forward to Saturday mornings because of “one Saturday morning” it played hey Arnold, recess, and Doug! I still can vaguely remember the song, it was like a really “twangy” almost blue grass and banjo style! Anyone else remember that?! I would wake up early every Saturday just to watch it 😭

[jonathansk]

Record songs from the Radio and Saturday morning cartoons, OMG, great memories in there.
