Toys That Only 90's Kids Will Remember Trying to Convert Them to Christianity


If there's one thing kids love, it's toys. Toys are fun, but feeling the love of our Creator is even more fun. These five toys demonstrate that when you combine both of these things, you get twice the good times!

Tamagotchi

Part of what made these electronic pets so popular were their life cycles. After hatching from an egg, they matured from Baby, to Child, to Teen, to Adult. Everyone who had one of these will no doubt remember the heartbreak of coming home from school to discover that their beloved friend had passed away in their absence. When this happened, a message would appear, explaining that animals do not have souls, and therefore have no place in the kingdom of Heaven alongside God.

Furby

Strange but adorable, these birdlike alien creatures stole the hearts of 40 million children. Most will remember their infamous catchphrases like, "wee-tah-kah-loo-loo," (tell me a joke), "u-nye-loo-lay-doo?" (do you want to play?), and "u-nye-noh-lah" (My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?).

Bop It

This simple concept led to hours of fun! Bop, Pull, Twist, and Repent! Pretty self-explanatory, when the device yelled, "Bop it," you'd "bop" the big button in the middle. When it yelled "Pull it," you'd "pull" the lever, "Twist it" meant you had to "twist" a dial, and "Repent" meant fans had to set the device down, go to the nearest Church, and confess their sins to a Priest before resuming play. You needed some seriously quick reaction time (and rhythm!) to get very far with this game!

Easy Bake Oven

Seems like every brownie we've ever had has paled in comparison to the gooey chocolate that was cooked from a simple lightbulb in this plastic box. It also allowed children to bake the body and blood of Jesus Christ, their Lord and Savior, as Hasbro boasted that it was the only children's toy oven that cooked ingredients that were 100% blessed by an ordained Priest. This toy proved that sometimes, fun was spelled Y-U-M!

Moon Shoes

These spring-loaded shoes allowed wearers to turn any floor into a trampoline! Interestingly, they were actually a part of a merchandising effort by Nickelodeon. The network has since said of the product, "We made Moon Shoes so kids could jump to God. Children simply don't have the life experience that awards them the opportunity to to do enough good deeds to warrant a spot in Heaven. We hoped these would allow kids to jump right into Heaven, though the launching power was extremely limited, making them a colossal failure. We now know that it is not man's right to decide who belongs or doesn't belong in Heaven. Only God may choose, and for our hubris, we will be punished for eternity in Hell." Who didn't have these on their Christmas list???
