11 Toys Every 00's Kid Had on Their Christmas List

Growing up in the 2000's was the best time for toys. From Bratz Dolls to Razor Scooters, every kid had at least one of these toys on their Christmas list.

11 Toys Every 00's Kid Had on Their Christmas List

With Black Friday sales coming up in less than a week, I think we should take a trip down memory lane in a little Christmas gift throwback for millennials.

1. Bratz Dolls

The dolls with the infamous attitudes and pouty lips. Everyone had a favorite. #TeamChloe all the way.












2. Nintendo DS

A dual screen hand held game device with a touch screen?! Every kid went crazy for these and were constantly on them.










3. The Sims (with every expansion pack)

Trust me, my parents spent hundreds of dollars on the games and the expansion packs throughout many birthdays and Christmases.




44. iPod (of some variation)

Whether it was the mini, touch, nano, at some point a kid would find one of these under their Christmas tree.








5. Portable DVD Player

In the days before having everything on your phone, you had to have a device to watch movies on during long car rides.














6. Razor Scooter

Coolest kid on the block if you could do a jump on your scooter. But also the worst pain imaginable from getting hit in the ankle with it.

















8. XBox 360

One of the most highly sought after Microsoft products to date.


















9. Nintendo Wii

Of course to compete with the 360 and to bring the wireless controller full body console to homes.



10110. Lite-Brite

We all lost plastic pegs left and right, but I was a champion at making rainbows on them.











11. Poo-Chis

The electronic version of man's best friend.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
