Kids on YouTube

So why is it kids love watching videos of an unknown face opening kinder eggs, and playing with playdough? The answer to this question which I get from my 5 year old is a shrugged shoulder.

I remember he was once watching a video of a German man eating sweets, he’d (very loudly) suck on a lollipop and every now and again, show it to the camera, the same was also done with chewing gum, gross!!

And then its the videos about video games, fair enough if you want to try before you buy, but we already own these games! Why instead of playing the game yourself and discovering what you can unlock, you want to watch some other dude play it? It’s right over there on the shelf, put it in and play it yourself.

Internet Famous! My son looks forward to the day where he can be internet famous and can record his own game play videos, once mummy figures out how and buys the materials that is.

It’s educational There is one YouTube channel though which is a particular favourite of the 5 year old, it might be something to do with the fact that the videos are made by his class teacher (whom he adores) and they’re educational so that’s a win for me.
