YouTube Content for Kids

    In today’s information age, various types of platforms offer a wide variety of entertainment and platform features. One of the media used for long-distance communication is social media. On the other hand, social media platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook can be used to entertain and educate users. According to Hooksuite research conducted in 2020, YouTobe is the first-ranked platform used by the people of Indonesia. There are several reasons why YouTube content is beneficial to kids.

    Firstly, YouTube provides entertainment through a variety of creative content. Many content creators on the platform, such as Cocomelon, Pinkfong, Chuchu TV, and Superjojo, use their creativity to engage and entertain kids. An example of their content is a kids song with a variety of colors and upbeat tones.

    Secondly, YouTube content can serve as an educational tool for kids. Research suggests that watching YouTube content for kids can improve concentration, imagination, creativity, and language skills. For example, my nephew is 4 years old. After he often watches Cocomelon, he knows English like numbers, colors and can sing in English. In this case, you can guide children and teach them useful things, and it is very appropriate to maximize the golden age period, when cognitive ability absorption begins in the brains of children aged 0–5 years.

    In conclusion, YouTube's diverse content gives both entertainment and educational value for children. As a result, it has become a popular and beneficial platform for the development of kids.
