So I would be correct in assuming that most of you reading this are a '90s baby. We may have been tots when the '90s were ensuing, and chances are we don’t remember a whole lot about the decade: but, chances are, you’ll remember the iconic signs of being a '90s kid.

1. We had the weirdest food trends. Some stayed. Some did not. Anyone remember colored ketchup (green, blue, etc.) or what about the iconic Dunkaroos? Gushers anyone?
2. We all played with our Skip Its, Hit Clips, or used MASH and Seven Up as a way to have fun during recess.
3. We had the wonderful blessing of favorite childhood shows like "Little Bear," "Blue's Clues," "Rugrats," "Franklin," "Cat Dog," "Scooby Doo," "The Powerpuff Girls," "Big Comfy Couch," "Power Rangers," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles," "Full House," and "Boy Meets World." Did I miss any? Of course, but the list could end up looking like a scroll if I continued.
4. We all knew gym class would be awesome if we were going under the bubble of a rainbow parachute or we were using the scooters to sit on and roll across the glossy gym floor.
5. Lisa Frank and gel pens were the predominant accessories in our stationary collection as opposed to the now ever popular Lilly Pulitzer or Vera Bradley.
6. Polly Pockets and Betty Spaghetti were the bomb.com (also, who could forget Barbie?!).
7. VHS tapes were so innovative. After all, how would you catch up on the latest Barney you missed? Also known as the earlier version of DVR…
8. Ring Pops made you cool…and if you were a girl, you always thought that’s how big your engagement ring would be some day (at least I did).
9. You actually played house, school, or doctor with your friends by dressing up and role playing instead of playing virtual games.
10. Pokemon cards were cool; regardless if you were a boy, girl or even a fan at all…
11. You hadn’t lived until you listened to the Backstreet Boys, N*SYNC. or Britney Spears on a CD (yes, I said CD).
12. Blockbuster was the cool thing to rent…no everyone, there was no such thing as "Netflix and chill" at this point.
13. It’s guaranteed that you read a Highlights magazine at some point, whether you were forced to or given one at a school book fair (a.k.a, everyone’s favorite shopping trip in kindergarten!)
14. You lost one of your stick on earrings every time...especially the heart ones!
15. The Macarena was every 90s kids version of “whip and nay nay” dance
16. That gray Nintendo you played was the coooolest video game console ever
17. Your stuffed animal collection was 95 percent beanie babies…
18. You watched every Disney movie at least 10 times (think "Toy Story" people!).
19. Slap bracelets were fun! I mean, if you didn’t mind the sting. I just thought my fuzzy leopard print one was the cat’s meow
20. The "Junie B. Jones" books were your favorite late-night (aka 7 p.m.) read.
21. Apple computers had big monitors with different colors on the back. Yes, I always had to choose the blue or purple one. Never green…
22. Silly putty on newspaper was beyond fascinating; am I wrong? How did that happen???
23. You actually looked forward to new TV show episodes on Friday nights instead of parties.
24. “Adult shows” like "Friends" were off limits and “inappropriate” (even though I had a little girl crush on Joey).
25. We had a love/hate relationship with Furbies. We loved those furry owls, but those eyes! And they never shut up (no matter how hard you tried by hiding it in a closet).
26. We ALL loved Chuck E Cheese. The pizza was great (or so we thought). The ball pit was awesome (even though it was more of a germ pit) and Hungry, Hungry Hippos - need I say more?
27. We all thought we were the new Master Chef with that Easy Bake Oven…you know, because we could all bake a cake the size of our palm!
28. Everyone got their license at age three and there were no provisions. We all drove a Power Wheels Jeep at some point, no? Mine was the pink Barbie edition…oh boy!
29. Mr. Potato Head was an awesome toy, boy or girl, who didn’t love him? He stored his hats in his back, duh?!
30. Kids born after this era will never understand the hype we give our childhood.

OK, so that was 30 reasons, and of course there are many more, as to why '90s babies know that the era they were born into is the best one yet (or so we think!). But really, can we agree to disagree that the '90s shows and toys were the best; the fashion, not so much…
