A plethora of the memories we hold come from our childhood. Personally, I would not trade my childhood experiences for anything, and I thank the '90s for raising me to have a broad imagination and adventurous soul. I am glad to have spent my young days playing outside climbing trees or running back and forth through the sprinkler. Every era offers a different childhood to the kids of that generation and I am beyond grateful to have been included in the generation of growing up in the '90s. Even without much technology, growing up in the '90s has provided us with the childhood of a lifetime.
