40 Nostalgic Posts That Are Bound To Hit ’90s Kids Right In The Feels
Interview With Expert
The first Bondi blue iMac, Sillybandz, and trading Pokémon cards. Feeling nostalgic yet? These three things have one characteristic in common: they were all around when millennials were kids. As most of our likes and dislikes come from childhood impressions, those who grew up in the '90s will always have a soft spot for these things.
Luckily, there are pages online that preserve our memory of this iconic decade. Like the "I was born in the 1990s" Facebook page, dedicated to nostalgic content relevant to that era. With its 1 million followers, it boasts a community of like-minded '90s kids hungry for a taste of their wonderful formative years.
Since everything these days seems to be about nostalgia, from movie remakes to old-school Nokias coming back in style, Bored Panda sought some expertise about using '90s nostalgia in marketing. Social media marketing guru Peg Fitzpatrick kindly agreed to tell us more about the power of the '90s in marketing. Read her expert insights below!

I think millenials (Gen X and Y) understand this much better than boomers.

Nowadays you're culrucified as a terrible person if you let your 10 year old alone for 5 minutes.

Oh wow! I feel ancient. Mum has a MASSIVE box of Happy Meal toys in her loft - mainly unwrapped that were sent to her as an apology by Mcdonalds in the mid 90s when she complained after they forgot the cake for one of our birthday parties... She can't remember whose. There is some awesome stuff in there

A gun for mustard? I'm fairly sure this wasn't a thing in Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, Australia, Antarctis, Arktis, Africa, Tattooine or Dagobah.

Dear god. I worked at Claire's in 03-04. These stupid things were add ons at the register and there was a different one every month. We had to push them so friggin hard.

I am the right age, mostly. I grew up in the late 80s. But I'm too foreign. Nobody would have had access to any of these things unless they were super wealthy. Plastic toys didn't come until we started trading with China in the mid-late 90s. And electronic toys were too expensive for most families.

When I was a kid, we played with rocks and sticks. Our house had one phone, it was plugged into the wall, it has a rotary dial on it and we weren't allowed to use it because local calls cost money back then.

When I was a young kid we did too. I spent a lot of time with my aunt, she had converted an old school bus and her and my uncle lived out in the middle of nowhere. This was back in the 80's, before this huge trend hit. There were no tvs, electricity, phones. We used our imaginations. Made forts, bows and arrows, found gun shaped sticks for hunting.
