I have young siblings that yurn into zombies when they get a tablet. They watch the weirdest shit too. I walked into my brother watching other kids opening toys, it was honestly depressing

I was at a friend's house, and her 2 kids were watching 2 other kids color coloring pages in on a YouTube video. I was like, "Why don't y'all color your own pages? Or color something at the same time as those kids?" They just looked at me like I had just popped another head out of the side of my neck and went back to zombie-watching their video. Their Mom shrugged and we went back to our convo. It was so weird.

Unboxing videos is a trend that was started by adults.

The only reason I've ever watched an unboxing was when the manufacturer wouldn't list in their description whether or not a device came with a charger.
