What a glorious gift it is to reflect on all of our laughable, questionable fashion choices, interests and must-have school supplies from the past. Grade school couldn't possibly have been that long ago, right? I know I still have those Lisa Frank notebooks around here somewhere. So grab a bean bag, and prop up those clogs on your coffee table while you sit back and enjoy the "30 Memories From Every Millennial's Grade School Days."
1. Foohy pencil sharpeners
For the lava-lamp-lovers in your life.
2. Foohy erasers
So intricate, so quirky - yet so ineffective.
3. Foohy everything
To be honest, the extra $4 was worth it - Foohy was everything.
4. Foldable rulers
Measurin' my way to the top in style.
5. Lisa Frank notebooks
Lisa Frank was my notebook, my folder, my pen, my pencil pouch, my binder, my icon, my inspiration.

This was my piece of parenthood.
7. Webkinz
Don't forget your daily Kinzcash and trip to the Curio Shop.
8. Club Penguin accounts
Puffles, igloos and accessories - oh my.
9. Gaucho pants
Natcho momma's pants.
10. Hair wraps
This is me expressing my individuality - this is me saying, "I am unique and colorful."
11. "Tough Guys Wear Pink" T-shirt
No 5th-grade-boy's wardrobe was complete without it, and that skull head-exclamation point? Quite the mysterious touch.
12. Embroidered jeans
Paired beautifully with the light-wash, hip-hugging, flare-cut of course.
13. Choker necklaces
It's called grunge. Look it up.

15. Fake tattoos
Where the tattoo-sleeve was born.
16. Bobby Jack jackets
Thank you, Mom.
17. The Big Eraser (for big mistakes)
The concept was so comforting, motivational even. Practical? Easy to use? Not exactly.
18. Snap bracelets
"Yeah, I have seven." "Mine's cheetah-print."
19. Spacemaker pencil boxes
No school year was complete without one.
20. Spongy flip flops
These were the most comfortable sandals you could ever own.
21. Bandanas
Hilary Duff rocks it? Then so will I.
22. Headbands with ribbons
The ribbons were added to the headbands with the intent of being tied, but for some unknown reason, no one ever felt compelled to do that.
23. Color-tinted sunglasses
Can semi-see the haters through my rose-tinted shades.
24. Flavored Lip Smackers
Dibs on the Skittles pack!
25. Owning a portable CD player
For Kids Bop on-the-go.
26. Watching MTV when you weren't supposed to
Dreaming of my "Super Sweet 16" like -
27. The 'oversized T-shirt knot'
Anyone have an extra hair tie? I need to fix my shirt.
28. Book fairs
The single-best week of the school year.
29. Rubber bracelets
"Dude, I'm up to 16 now." "I don't even take mine off in the shower."
30. KID PIX
Where your inner-artist was unleashed and your digital artwork was born.
