Confessions of a 90's kids

If you were a 90's kid, like me, count yourself blessed!

We were the kids who got to play outside all day long without another care In the world. We paddled in pools outside our own homes, played pittu with the little boys and girls on our street, scootered to the shops in the Summer, all by ourselves, cos mummy didn't have to worry about all the bad things that could happen to us like she does with our younger siblings now.

We danced and sang under chirping birds, of course, not in a haraam way, we were just being silly! We played tag with our cousins, and cried when we got out. Sometimes we even joined in with the cricket game on the streets.

We ate 99p ice - creams and our favourite past time was reading books or watching Lion King (the movies were good back then.) We slept early at night because we wanted to awake early in the morning to start our days adventures again.

School was also awesome! We loved learning. KP crisps were our favourite snack, and for the girls, the skipping rope was our best friend. Oh wait, and the hoola hoop!

There was no time to sit In front of the TV watching rubbish, no time to waste on Ipads and phones.

Instead, we made the most of our childhood, and Alhamdulilah for these memories, because many kids then and now, don't half have the blessings we forget to thank Allah for. So take a moment out to thank Allah for blessing you with memories which you can forever cherish. ♡

Alhamdulilah.
