30 Wild ’90s Posts And Memes That You May Be Too Young For
Growing up during the 90s was a wild ride. We had elite entertainment like Hey Arnold, All That and Boy Meets World. The music scene was iconic with amazing artists for anyone’s taste. Posters of bands like Nirvana, The Cranberries and the Spice Girls were plastered over bedrooms all across the globe, and computer games like Oregon Trail were just starting to take over kids’ lives.
And while I’m happy to be an adult today, I have to admit that I’d love the chance to transport myself back to 1997 and enjoy one more cotton candy Trix yogurt. If you’re a fellow 90s kid who’s in the mood for a blast of nostalgia, you’ve come to the right place, pandas. We took a trip to the 90sKidz90s Instagram page and gathered some of their best memes below. Enjoy scrolling through, and keep reading to find conversations with Chelsea Woodward and Jillian Diaz Cringle, hosts of the Worked For 90s Kids! podcast, and Kathy Kenzora, host of the History of the 90s podcast!

I had a mood ring. When it was blue I was happy. When it was green I was sad. And when I was p*ssed off, it left a red mark on my ex boyfriend's forehead!

True story: the teacher told us to do the first problem so she could explain how addition worked. I did a whole bunch, then when she came to check covered it up with my pencil case, then got busted for working ahead AND trying to hide it. Called me out in front of the whole class. So yeah, I learned anxiety in school.

Pogs, thanks for the nostalgia BP. I remember having what I thought was one of the coolest slammers, it was heavy, but had a purple grippy side that smelled like grape. Ahh, to be a kid again...

I had sneakers with thick soles. I was around 9 or 10 and obsessed with the Spice Girls.

That weird moving cube toy was in Every doctor's office and was the immunity building system before filthy cellphones. Lol

I always wanted to try this, my parents said no because it was too expensive, that was their go to excuse for anything I asked for that they didn't want to pay for.

Don't know if it's my taste buds or if they changed the recipe, but these don't taste as good as I remember

I still have about 40 Chucky Cheese coins. They're not used anymore, so they'll sit in my closet until who knows...

Umm…I never did this. Was there a reason for doing it, or was the kid just a weirdo? 🤣

I didn’t know these existed in colors other than orange. And I distinctly remember them having Fred or Barney from the Flinstones on them

I had a similar one, but I HAD to take the bus once my siblings started school and mum had to drive them. I got one year of rides, then was back to wishing I was invisible getting on the bus every day.

I have seen this in the op shop (thrift store) a bit but never used it as a kid.

this doesn't look at all familiar, but I remember the little dolls. quints. quints. five times the fun. I love taking care of every one. then, rather disturbingly the song went. I love you, and you, and you and you. what did the other baby do not to be loved?!

The ultra-low rise pants can be forgiven, it was 2003. Nobody knew how stupid they looked.

Do they mean your home or a holiday house? Also, my mum always made us go outside to play, rather than stay in and watch tv etc.

This list should be titled "Millennial Nostalgia" There are things here from the 80's, 90's and 00's, as well as things that are just 'kid' things that still apply to kids now.

as someone that was born in 2003, I grew up with a good 3/4 of these. it always ticks me off a little when I see these things gatekept for only the millennials or the 90's kids to feel nostalgic over because it's kinda just denying my childhood in a way.

Because if you were a "90s kid" you were a tween in the 2000s.

To all commentors: No, this list is not entirely accurate, and no, we 90s babies are not attempting to gatekeep nostalgia. For we are now of the age our predecessors were when they also looked back and dreamt of days more innocent and cringe, and we felt the same as you do now. Give it some time, your turn will come. You may not see it, but the documentation for it could not have existed during our time, as the internet was also just being hatched from its little nest and learning to fly. You will understand, be it 10 or 20 years from now. Twas not long ago I saw Gen X as my enemy. Then, they became 'okay.' Then they became "not unlike myself." Time is a funny thing. *pats Gen Z and Alpha heads*
