Maybe just so that I could be as cute as this little girl:
American Girl:I was obsessed with the American Girl brand growing up. I purchased the magazines, had the dolls (Samantha, Molly, Kirsten, Felicity, the baby twins, and one that looks like me), collected the trading cards and the paper dolls. To say I was obsessed was definitely an understatement. Interesting fact though: I saw on e-bay that issues which I still had up until a few years ago were selling for $15-30!
Pretty, Pretty, Princess:I loved this game and I'm so glad that little girls still play it.
Talk Girl: My brother and I had this. I can't believe that I owned this. Oh goodness childhood geekiness at its finest.
Pogs:I never actually understood the game behind it all, instead I simply collected them because I thought they were pretty.
My Little Pony: Still popular. I remember that there used to be the My Little Pony show on T.V. which I would watch when I would go over to my friends' houses. I didn't have cable then.
Skip-It:I had a few versions of the skip it. I'm sure that my mom was happy that I had something that kept me busy for awhile outside.
What were your favorite toys to play with when you were little?

I would love to go back to my childhood too!I am definitely older than you, but my favorite toys/games were Barbie, Cabbage Patch Kids, Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, and My Little Pony. They don't make all the cute toys that I had when I was a kid, they are so cheap now! Good luck on exams. I sure don't miss those.
I was OBSESSED with American Girls! I had Samantha, Kit, a lookalike, and a Bitty Baby...and all the books and too many doll clothes to boot. A girl I babysit for gets the magazine, and I like skimming through it- not much has changed! I believe I have all of my issues boxed up in the attic somewhere.
Your childhood sounds like it was a lot like mine!! American Girl dolls, Skip It, my Little Poney, and Pretty, Pretty Princess were all toys that I played with as well. I also loved beanie babies and gel pens and had massive collections of them!
i think about this ALL the time...it doesnt even have to be a childhood. I think about how much changed just from senior year of high school.
Did you have ribbon dancers?!? They were right up there with skip-it
I was a huge American Girl, Pretty Pretty Princess, Pogs and Skip It fan myself! When i was little I would even make my dad play Pretty Pretty Princess with me! Ah memories!
mannn I haven't thought about some of that stuff in a long time! I had tons of pogs and I loved my Talkboy. (and Home Alone) Maybe I should bring back the Skip It, it would be a good work out!!
There is so many things I wish I still had from my childhood. I used to love My Little Ponies and Pretty, Pretty, Princess, I would love to get a hold of one of those games for nostalgia purposes.

Ahh the days of sitting outside playing with American Girl dolls and games of Pretty, Pretty Princess. I would wear most of the jewelry that were props for this games in everyday life. :) Ohh and I never walked anywhere until I was using my Skip-It... To get the mail or just around the driveway. TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN I WAS LITTLE!

I am out of college.. but still a 90's child!! I just got rid of all my American Girl magazines recently when I helped my parents clean out their attic. I had a few AGs but Felicity was my favorite!!
