Things from your childhood
So what are somenostalgic things you remember from your childhood?
I figured this would be kind of interesting because we're definitely not all the same ages :)
My list would probably have to be:
The Sega Genesis
Rugrats!
Hey Arnold
Sticker books
Choose your own adventure books
Furbies
LEGOS! I was always jealous of my brother because of all the legos he had :P
Pop rocks
Slap bracelets
Lite Brites!
There's more I can't think of but I'm sure others can think of a lot more.
