Relive the 90s crazes

I just found out that Gen Z's latest nostalgic obsession is a classic 90s campus favorite, and it's left me a little bemused. Hacky Sacks are back, it seems, and are even selling out in stores across the U.S. For those of us who remember the squishy little beanbags, hearing that high schoolers are embracing them as a hot new 'trend' feels slightly bizarre. I can't be the only one who hadn't particularly realized they had ever gone away?!

Still, the rise of this wholesome pastime is also strangely reassuring; kids still just wanna have fun. It's inspired me to put together the following 90s fads picture quiz, celebrating some of the games, toys and crazes that swept the decade. Do you remember all 9?

How did you do on this quiz? Better than Freddie Prince Jr in the "She's All That" talent show, or had you forgotten about some of these? If you had all of them, you were super lucky and 10-year-old me wants to come hang out at your place after school!
