Yeah, but how many surprise egg videos does the average parent want to watch?
The videos that most children like are of a very poor quality at which most adults would cringe.
I've tried to redirect my children toward more high-quality children's programming. You know, stuff with scripts and budgets. Nonetheless, they want these toy porn videos produced by these toddler whisperers.
As the article begins, children crave autonomy. YouTube Kids gives it to them. It's an amazing application. I have a Google Music subscription, so my kids get to watch these videos ad-free. It's a pretty good experience for everyone.
- option 9y agoGiving children autonomy is quite easy actually - parent just has to be a little inventive. For example, my 2 year old loves helping me by taking walking around with the mop, placing thing (not toys) from one box to another, etc. I wonder how good/bad those "toy porn" videos are. I don't know, hence I prefer to play it safe and follow AAP recommendations regarding screen time.
- david-gpu 9y agoIt's not really ad-free when the actual videos revolve around toy unboxing, is it?
- bdamm 9y agoMy rule is simple. At the point where my mind snaps in half because I've been hearing those surprise egg videos for far too long as background noise, "toy video" time is over, and it's time to choose another genre. I assist by selecting a new vector (robots! rockets! ponies! kid cooking videos!) and give the iPad back.
