4 Classic Board Games That All '90s Kids Will Remember
Bustle

The '90s were a time when board games had an appeal to kids and they enjoyed playing with them. It was something simple that could be done with family and friends and usually always allowed for a fun time. These are classic board games that are remembered.

1. Monopoly

You start with $1500 of your own as you cross a board buying property and trying to get your own homes and hotels to acquire more money as the game progresses. Be careful to avoid going to jail or giving your competitors the money that belongs to you. It is a game of chance and whatever happens could be for better or worse.

2. Life

This game puts many people’s lives together in one single nutshell. We go to college and look for jobs. There is a time when we consider marriage and even go through being fired , unfortunately for some, or a mid-life crisis even. $10,000.00 is allotted to the player and it is the player's job to make the right decisions and make sure their life is how they would like it to be.

3. Scrabble

If you ever want to test your vocabulary, this is the game to play. Using every title that is available to you and connecting what is already on the board will cause one on thinking, which word shall be played. Whoever has the most points in the end wins. Play each tile carefully and beat your opponent with the words played.

4. Checkers

Two players are pitted against each other and have to move each piece. They carefully capture what pieces the other player has. Make the right move and continue to advance until everything is in your possession. Taking the game into your own hands matters in this game.

Playing these games are what '90s kids did and we still remember them today. They bring us back to those nostalgic memories of our childhood when we didn't have iPhones to play games on. That is what these games did for us and why they have a place in our heart today. Their legacy lives on.

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
