These name bracelets were also popular for short time. They were cheapy. The rhinestones fell out after a few days and rubber band wripped

Every bat mitzvah girl got one of these. There were different designs on the links like hearts, starts etc. or you could do your name or initials. It would also pinch your skin occasionally if you moved your wrist the wrong way.



We also got personalized initial rings for our bat mitzvah. So cool!

Ha yes, we put it in tights, and bashed it against a wall whilst singing a song? Anyone remember?! 😆
Something like yes sir, no sir, meet you at the grocer...
Or was this just an British thing?

Omg yes I remember shoulder pads!! They came with velcro to attach to the clothing. My mother wore them. Not so much us, as far as I remember. This is so fun, even though I'm late to the game.

Can't remember what we called it- Skip Its? Skip Ball? Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Also in upper elementary school, my class was in obsessed with Spit using a deck of cards. The entire class was divided in groups, each group playing Spit.
