Boom Boom Wow?? 90s Now Pt.1

The toys that changed recess


These were awesome, to anyone who had these as a kid knows the greatness they possessed, POGS were a form of currency in most schools. Who would have thought paper with pictures and metal slammers would be so fun.




Although I didnt own it myself, seems like there wsa always that one kid who would bring it to school everyday, This was addictive, no matter what you did you were meant to fail.




Now this was a rad game, they made hitting light up buttons seem impossible, when you think you got it figured out, they would switch it up to the most insane pattern ever, but it was all in good fun




Classic excuse for mischeif, did any other schools besides my elemantary school ban pokemon cards?? according to teachers it was a form of gambling hahahaha the nerve of them




Pure genius, Thats all i'm gonna say




Now this was an insane mind blowing toy, the gamegear and mighty morphin power rangers game was all I needed to get through the day





Jacks were just too cool



Marbles was always the one game I sucked at, but they were awesome to collect, The more marbles, the more power you had on the playground

Look out for part 2, coming to a retro theater near you

    "the toys that changed recess"?

    umm, a majority of the items you listed can't even be taken to school!

    I must agree with these two. What's missing here is how they impacted your life or how much fun u had with these things, and the experiences that happened with them. To name a few.

    I'm not even sure where to start with this article. It seems like you just grabbed a bunch of random stuff, told us absolutely nothing about them, and called it a day. I mean, I wasn't a kid in the 90s, so what makes you assume I know anything about Pogs?

    Also, you pegged a few things that have been around longer than the 1990s. Jacks? You think those were invented in the 90s? Marbles? Seriously? And I was beating my sisters at Simon back in 1978...

    Thumbs down for lack of effort.
