I think it's slightly biased of me to say this (because I am a 90's baby, hahaha!), but I think the previous generations had some of the best and most memorable cartoon shows. Coming home from school, I used to rush, dropped my book bag, and got to homework straight away, so that when I finished, my mom would let me watch TV. Sadly, those days are behind us and so are those shows! So here I am, reminiscing about the most amazing toons back in my childhood! Hope you agree!


1. "Tom and Jerry"

Giphy

The perfect dynamic duo! The laughter and enjoyment coming from these two are infinite! The series spans many, many generations and so, when I was younger, I remember watching these hilarious episodes with my dad!

2. "Scooby Doo, Where Are You?"

Giphy

Solving mysteries and crimes with the best gang and their coo-coo dog was so much fun! I loved every aspect of this show as well as the movies that were made off of this series!

3. "Yu-Gi-Oh!"

Giphy

This Japanese cartoon series was the most adventurous! My cousin and I used to come home and watch this together! We were so fond of it that my cousin and our friends also had the Duel Disk to battle cards on!

4. "SpongeBob SquarePants"

Giphy

This show has been going on forever and to be completely honest, I never enjoyed the show as much in my younger childhood years than I did later in my teens and young adulthood years! I hate to admit it, but I still think it's awesome to watch the misadventures of this sea sponge!

5. "Caillou"

This show talks about some important topics and character traits that need to be taught to children at a very young age! Between the relationships with his mom, dad, and Rosie, Caillou taught the audience how to be a good friend and sibling!

6. "Magic School Bus"

Giphy

One of my greatest memories from school are related to this show! On many occasions, this show has given me amazing knowledge and made it enjoyable to learn about so many topics from the crazy field trips that Mrs. Frizzle and her students took!

7. "Arthur"

Giphy

In this elementary school classic, a young Arthur Read and his friends teach us about childhood problems and relatable instances that we have all faced! Its funny at times as well as deals with important topics in childhood such as bullying, snarky teachers and HOMEWORK!



Even though these days are far behind me, I still admit to sitting down with my siblings and enjoying these shows! It reminds me of what it was like to be carefree and without a worry of the world!

Mouse, Cookie, Chaos!

He's going to ask for a glass of milk

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
