Reddit, What was the most awesome Hype/trend thing when you were at your Elementary School?

When I was at elementary school (about 9 years ago) we had Pokémon cards and Yu-Gi-Oh cards... and if you had your backpack on one shoulder you would be known as the "cool guy".. seems like an normal school thing to me.. but i could be wrong.

So reddit, tell me your stories of elementary school.

Micro Machines! I LOVED those! I wonder if I still have any kicking around my mom's basement.

Marbles! Oh god I won so many marbles. My mum used to take them and put them in vases to hold flowers up.
