12 Things You Definitely Did After School in the Early 2000s

The early 2000s were an amazing time for TV, fashion, music, and just about everything else. And if you were a kid back then, there really wasn't anything quite like the feeling you had when you finally got home from school. You could watch the Disney channel (hello, Boy Meets World reruns!), eat snacks, log onto AIM to see what crazy drama you missed since you said goodbye to your friends 20 minutes earlier, and do your homework in front of the TV because screen time wasn't really a thing yet. It was an interesting and magical time that you likely won't fully understand unless you lived it. Take a trip down memory lane and keep reading for 12 things you probably did after school in the early 2000s.

1. Watch the Disney Channel

2. Eat Dinner With Your Family

You probably threw food at your sibling from across the table, said "fine" when your parents asked you how your day was, and had to seriously negotiate to not eat all of your veggies, but looking back, those are priceless memories.

4. Fight With Your Siblings Before Bed
