I was lucky enough to know my great-grandparents. They kept me on the reg when I was little (mom worked and dad was in school).

They made it until I was in high school (93 and 95 years old), but I still find myself missing them a lot. &nbsp

Barbies, Fraggle Rock, Rainbow Brite doll, banana seat Huffy bike, Skip It, pound puppies, I really miss my Cabbage Patch Kids. Ahhh, that Shiit was cool.

I miss my trampoline, making forts in the woods, riding my go cart, shooting my BB gun without parent supervision, mowing the lawn on our riding lawn mower, playing Nintendo 64 with the family, all the old Nick shows, riding my Radio Flyer red wagon down

I remember when Tamogatchi's first came out and everyone had at least 6 of them on a lanyard thing around their necks. I also remember them banning them in school within months of the fad. I was so sad I couldn't take care of them in school my Mom would t

This will sound dumb, but when I was a kid, I remember Taco Bell used to sell cinnamon crispas that were flour tortilla chips that were covered with cinnamon and sugar. Man I loved those things. I do not like what they have now.

I didn't have cable or a lot of toys. My absolute favorite thing was playing Hide-and-go-Seek at night, in the dark, outside...it was even more fun when my mom and stepfather would play. I had 1 sister, 2 brothers, and 1 stepbrother, and a few friends

Naps. I miss naps.

To think i did not like them back then...crazyness!

bearfootz · April 2013

well, there are a lot of relatives that I miss and it just seems like things were simpler in the 80s and 90s.

But as for fun stuff...I miss getting free pizza from pizza hut because I liked to read. Making mixed tapes from the radio. Watchi

Whenigrowup · April 2013

I'm super nostalgic for my youth, so dd plays with my old Carebears, pound puppies, Rainbow Brite dolls, and my cabbage patch kid. In my classroom library, I have Babysitters Club, Sweet Valley Twins, and Goosebumps (I have Fear Street and SVH but I do

I am going to sound sooo dorky, but I don't care - Lite Brite and also pick up sticks. There were also little animal families, I think the work "critter" was in the name of it, but I can not remember that. I loved those things!&
