Duckman. I still fall asleep with it sometimes.
That's not quite a children's cartoon...
So many... The earliest cartoon I remember loving was The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. It was incredibly cozy. Then I discovered Cartoon Cartoons, especially Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter's Laboratory with their throwback art styles, and got obsessed with those for a while.
Eventually SpongeBob came out and became my personality, because he was basically an annoying kid trying his best to be friends with everyone like I was. (It's played out now, it wasn't back then.)
ETA how did I not mention classic Looney Tunes. Before we had cable I was really into the classics.

Imma bend the rules:
Thunderbirds.
Once I turned 10: SpongeBob and the Simpsons
Before that: everything, including Pokémon, GummyBears, Darkwing Duck, I am Weasel, recess… I just loved everything!
I was a fan of Jonny Quest, the banana splits although that wasnt strictly a cartoon nor was Sigmund the sea monster and hr pufnstuf
Doraemon
This is a very big franchise in Asia but rarely mentioned in the west, so let me introduce it to (most of) you :>
Doraemon is a robot cat from the 22nd century who has gone back in time to help a kid named Nobita. He has a lot of wacky gadgets to offer. Each episode is basically a story about one of these gadgets. They also pump out a new movie every year.
Doraemon is incredibly popular in Spain, to the point that basically everyone no matter the age knows at least the premise and the main characters. It baffled me when I found out that it was largely unknown in other western countries.
Edit: I just remembered Shinchan, another anime that is huge in Spain but not very popular elsewhere.
Mighty Orbots, just for the theme song alone. Now that I think about it I will have that song stuck in my head all day.
Professor Kitzel.
I used to be scared of Tintin for some reason, but loved to sit around watching it.
Bamse — världens starkaste björn!
Beast Wars for me
as a late gen z I really enjoyed Tom & Jerry, Spongebob, Doraemon, and Pororo
Dexter's Laboratory, Cow and Chicken, Power Puff Girls
Wren and Stimpy?
Reboot
It may not be the answer I gave at the time, but it's the best balance now of "liked it as a kid" and "like it as an adult"
Make sure you check out the documentary that was released last month on YouTube! It's called ReBoot Rewind.
Alphanumeric!
I'm terrified of rewatching it and it not living up to my nostalgia.
A documentary was released on the show last month. During production they were given the original master tapes for the show and have been slowly releasing all of the episodes in glorious 4k for free on YouTube. Check them out - they hold up to nostalgia better than you'd expect.
