50 Signs That You Grew Up In The 90’s

Last Updated on August 4, 2021

It's true, the 90's are the new 80's. Although some of this stuff seems like just a decade ago, we are working on 20 years now. A lot of these things no longer exist, but when I go back and look at how much fun we had with the simplest of things, I wish I could put my iPhone away for a day and take a trip back. How weird would it be now to write an actual letter and send it through snail mail? Or spend an entire day looking for Waldo? Although I didn't realize it then, I LOVED the 90's!!

You may not remember all of these things, but they were all things that I remember from my childhood. Although I found hundreds of great memories while doing research for this article, I narrowed it down to 50 of my favorite.
