Your childhood wasn’t fun if you didn’t watch any of these cartoons

As adults whenever we sit back and talk about our individual childhood experiences, we get to realize that we all almost had the same childhood growing up. We played the same games, watched the same TV programs, experienced the same parental behavior as can be seen on the list of 10 Things That Happens in Every Nigerian Home.

They were some cartoons back in the day that was a must-watch for every kid back then and if you didn’t watch any of these cartoons while growing up, you were either from a Deeper Life family who don’t allow television in their homes or had strict parents who never allowed you watch the TV at home or at your friend’s place.
