12 Things Today's Kids Will Never Know

1. What a Floppy Disc is/does.


2. Collecting tazos, jenga cards, basically everything that came free with cheetos!

He is serious about paying 1.5k if you still got Tazos and Jenga Cards :D
Yes, I wish I hadn't thrown away mine!
 
3. Playing with marbles! No not the online game!


4. Spinning the top. And that, my friends, would also include Beyblades. Let it rip!

Shuru ho jaye :P Kai was my favorite though :|

5. Raining outside? Stay home, call your friends over. WWE, cricket trump cards.
Ever wondered why Brock Lesner was always at the top?!

6. Board games; business, ludo, snakes & ladders etc
 

 
I sort of don't remember how this was played :|






7. Outdoor games! That would include, pakda-pakdi, langdi and lots of made up games too!

Chor Police


Lagori :P

8. Video game - no not playstation or xbox!



Marioooo
Contra!
















9. Being the only kid with a computer in the locality!

 
That was pretty much a passing phase :D

10. The first mobile phone in your family- that moment!

Nokia 1110 - first cell in my house!
11. When cartoons made sense.

 
They fazed out, didn't they? :(

 














12. Rushing home after playing cricket on a Saturday afternoon at 12 PM to not miss this. Ever!
I can't forget dressing up like him for a fancy dress competition!


I'm sure I've left out many things from our childhood that are sort of extinct now. Do you have any in mind?
