Childhood Memories

I was helping my friends prepare a quiz for the age group 13-18 years old and we were really at loss as to what the adolescents of today grow up with or know??

This brought us back to some of our childhood memories....anyone who had been brought up in India in the last decade will be able to relate to a few of them at least!!!

Games included lukka chhuppi, dabba ice-spice, lagor, kho-kho, kabaddi. Girls also played Aoo Meena and Uma Joshi ye ye ye.....

"In-pin safety pin" or "akkad Bakkad Bambai bo" were the way we started all our games.

Cartoon Network and Nickolodeon were a weekend treat.

The comics we regularly read were Amar Chitra Katha, Tinkle, Chacha Chaudhary, Billo, Pinki....

You loved the tazos and temporary tattoos that came with Lays and Boomer. Still your favourite chips for picnics were Uncle Chipps, Peppy and Piknik......

Mahabharata was a favourite way to spend Sunday mornings.

You never missed an episode of Hum Panch or Hip Hip Hooray!!!

Andaz Apna Apna is and most probably will always be our favourite comedy flick!! "Aila Jhakaas!!!"

The English serials we actually had a chance to see were dubbed versions of Small Wonder and I Dream of Genie. Later we saw Full House and the English versions of Small Wonder and I Dream of Genie as these channels cam to India.

Ahhhhhh.......old memories!!!
