All 80s Kids Will Recognize These 15 Back-To-School Supplies
Going to school in the 80s was pretty great - we had neon track suits, brightly colored hair clips, trapper keepers and Mr. T cereal to start off the day.
Sure, our hair was probably bigger than our heads, the plastic pencil cases tore a hole in them by the end of the year and I was forever losing those adorable hair clips, but that's just part of what makes remembering those days so fun!
Check out these top 15 back-to-school must haves for every 80s kid and see how many you remember.
