We were obviously obsessed with something in our childhood. Well, multiple things! Name as many as you like!

Horses. People always said, it would vanish once I'd be a teen but nope. I stopped taking riding lessons when I was 13 and my family never had enough money for an own horse but actually I never lost interest completely. Never.
I got my first horse at the age of 21 and even though she had to be put down a few years ago and I haven't had a horse since, it's not off my mind. (It can't. I write books and horses are always a part of them.)
Im obsessed with stuffed animals and food. I can’t survive without either 🥰
Puzzles and horses (animals)...by the time I was 3 yro, I was putting puzzles together. That's not so amazing until the adults watching me put the puzzles together tell you that these were a minimum of 1000 + pieces AND I was putting them together Picture Side down! I'm still obsessed with puzzles and yes, I still put them together with the picture side down. Horses, Unicorns and Dragons, oh my! Animals in general, Real or Mythological, doesn't matter. I prefer the company of non human animals. Always have, Always will.
Be honest dudes .. finding Playboys. Doesn't matter where you found them!
Sitcoms, still am. I love watching The Nanny and Friends and Full House and The Big Bang Theory, I'm 13 too, so my mom was really surprised when i loved them so much as a kid.
Hello Kitty, Monster High, Frozen, and Dinosaur Train

lolirock - baby me's first magical girl show. i loved it and it introduced me to my love for music! cant wait for the third season
Dragons and Pokémon! Still love them both just not to the same extent (^-^)
I guess, in some ways you could chalk these up to my autism. When I was a child, I had an obsession with old fashioned potato mashers. Every time my family went some wear, if I saw one of those, I insisted they buy it for me. At one time we had five or six of them in the house. My mom says I used to play with them a lot when I was a kid. Also, the 1984 film Ghostbusters and its theme song. Probably, my all time favorite movie, I used to watch it all the time as a kid, and whenever I did, I used to try and tape the song on a tape recorder. When we got a VCR, I used to tape the cartoon version in the hopes of hearing the song. I even wore out several cassette tapes of the soundtrack simply by listening to the song (and the instrumental version) over and over again. Looking back on it, I guess one of the reasons I liked the song and film was because it served as an escape mechanism for the bullying and emotional abuse I endured as a child.
