That was the TV diet on which children of the 90s were raised, and many of us look back fondly on those days before we had to worry about work, bills and what to cook, among other responsibilities.
If you grew up in Sheffield during the 90s, these photos will take you back to your carefree youth, when you feasted on Push Pops and Rainbow Drops, and Take That and the Spice Girls dominated the charts.
Do you remember when Sheffield had its own airport, Little Nipper buses were a common sight, and you could take to the slopes at Sheffield Ski Village?
This retro photo gallery features all those 90s sights, and many more, including youngsters preparing for the popular Sheffield Children’s Festival, the World Student Games opening at Don Valley Stadium, and Take That performing at Sheffield Arena.
Children are shown at schools and parks around Sheffield, celebrating Christmas and Chinese New Year, raising money for good causes, and marking a special anniversary for the city.
A Sheffield United star, a boxing great and one of the city’s greatest musical exports also feature alongside the youngsters in this trip down memory lane.
Do these photos bring back any happy memories for you, and what do you think was the best thing about growing up in the 90s?
