    Hi

    Fairly harmless one really. Have a 4 year old boy and a 3 year old girl.

    Instead of watching peppa pig or paw patrol or whatever, they watch a lot of YouTube videos of other kids opening toys all day.

    Does yee children do this?

    I've heard of it/seen it.Ridiculous to my mind.We don't do youtube for that stuff.

    I’ve seen it a couple of times, just seems crazy to me! Don’t allow the kids on YouTube now, too many times the ‘suggested’ Next video isn’t suitable or leads to something else we don’t like them watching. Easier just to say no YouTube and they got over it fairly quickly!

    My son (4) loves it, it wrecks my head. I don't mind him watching it himself, but if I'm sitting down to watch something with him, not a chance!

    Seems harmless enough to me though. I've no real problem with him watching it.

    Its the same thing with Teens watching other teens play games online through YouTube.

    Bizarre. But what's the harm. Must be a generational thing.

    its amazing the things you learn when you have kids.
    this is called unboxing its one of the biggest things on youtube and many of the people who do this make a lot of money out of it.


    all mine have been obsessed with it, its pretty harmless i suppose, except they start taking in an american accent.

    Not fool proof but at least it's not regular YouTube
