PreS-K–A flashback to the 1990s and some of its most iconic gadgets, looks, devices. The ‘90s baby uses lingo from the era (“I’m fly! I’m wicked”) as they rollerblade down the street in their times-specific fashions; they stop to answer a page, then go to a dance party with their CD player boom box.

VERDICT For nostalgic caregivers only; this is a solid pass.
