As I look back, I'm filled with nostalgia for the carefree days of my childhood. Growing up, I was always eager to play with my friends after school or during holidays. Our teachers would often emphasize the importance of play for kids, and I took it to heart (LOL!). But despite being enthusiastic about playtime, I managed to balance it with my studies and consistently ranked among the top students in my class.

Those were the days of simple joys – running, jumping, skipping, and playing in the rain. We'd engage in games like kite flying, rubber band betting, and pretend play, using our imagination to create our own little worlds. We'd walk together, explore our surroundings, and bond over shared experiences.

Nowadays, I notice that children seem more engrossed in their phones than in traditional play. It's striking how they've traded in the simplicity of childhood for the allure of digital screens. While it's true that the world is evolving, and technology is becoming increasingly integral to our lives, I couldn't help but feel that something precious is being lost in the process.

In conclusion i believe that childhood should be a time for exploration, creativity, and connection with others.

Yes childhood of the 90s was a very interesting generation that has passed Truly, 90s childhood was a blessing. We grew up with genuine joy, playing outside till dusk, hearing our mothers call us from the compound, sharing food, stories and laughter. No phones, just real moments. This generation may be fast, but our own upbringing shaped us with culture, respect and strong Igbo family values.
Exactly
