These days, it is hard to imagine what life might look like without any technology or the Internet being so available. The Internet is used by nearly everyone in some capacity, and it is pretty important for some things. It has advanced the world in the professional sense and entertainment wise, but life before the Internet seemed so much more simple. It's strange to think about how things were back then.

There are lots of people around who do remember life before the Internet was a thing. Boomers and Gen Xers grew up in an era where they had to play outside, in the streets, or with physical toys. While kids still do these things, many of them are more into their tablets, screens, and other online forms of entertainment.

This is a collection of 25 images taken in the past of kids just being kids before they were so invested in technology. These images are filled with nostalgia, and throw things back to a time that many people have forgotten existed.
