I'm a mom of a 1999er, but to me Toy Story and Harry Potter were the movies and franchises that defined my kids childhood. He slept with a Buzz Lightyear toy, and dressed as Buzz for Halloween. A few years later he was Harry Potter and building Harry Potter Legos.
I cried at the last of both movies, because Andy and Harry were suddenly so grown up! |

My oldest nephew is a 2k baby. I babysat A LOT!
Wiggles, Elmo's world (love), Baby Einstein, the first(?) kids to have a BILLION photos and scrapbooks! (I know photo albums and scrapbooks were happening before, just the HUGE hobby it became at that time). I'm trying to describe the baby clothes at that time. There was something different about those years. Still quality for sure. I'll try to think of more. |

DD was 16 months on 9/11 and she knew something was wrong with us by the end of that week, she kept looking in our eyes.
When DD was about three, we sang the Lion King over and over and over. Miss those days. |

Love this thread! My son turns 3 tomorrow and loves some of the things mentioned here - has grown out of Blues Clues but used to love it. Loves Elmo Adventures in Grouchland and Elmo's World and very recently has become OBSESSED with Toy Story.
Most of the shows we watch are on Prime or Netflix so we watch a mix of old and new. |
