Do you ever wonder why throwback (or flashback) posts are so popular? I got one word in my mind. Nostalgia. Throwback photos and videos help bring to remembrance the good old days when life was simpler, or happier, or maybe weirder.
There’s something pretty awesome about connecting with your kids over something you loved when you were young. It offers kids a glimpse into what you were like as a kid yourself and gives you a way to relive your childhood.
Cartoons such as the new Netflix original series Inspector Gadget and Danger Mouse are giving parents and kids loads to bond over. These new reboots are introducing a whole new generation to some of our most favorite characters.

I loved the old Saturday morning cartoons! Inspector Gadget was in my sister’s time…but, was still a great cartoon, as an older kid!!!

These are great! That’s how I feel when my granddaughter plays my old Zelda game and system I played when I was young. She gets a kick out of it.
I remember watching Inspector Gadget, My Little Pony, Garfield, and the Smurfs. Right now the only thing I’m watching on Netflix is Malcolm in the Middle.

I love Scooby-Doo when I was a child. I even named my dog after him.
I had no idea there was a Super Mario cartoon. I remember when the Legend Of Zelda came out. I used to love playing that game. Especially the first time I made it to the end and killed the dragon.
major throwback! I have to go watch now!
I don’t have Netflix but I sure wish I did.
