I am not saying that these channels will be good for YOUR kids. But, I get a lot of questions about what we watch on YouTube (not YouTube Kids) and these are the go-to channels that I MOSTLY trust and am comfortable with him watching.
1. Mr Beast. Competitions, challenges, good deeds, educational, travel… so much fun! I also love that Mr Beast has all the money in the world and he is so down to earth, has all his childhood friends surrounding him (who are hilarious), treats everyone so nicely, and is just humble. Mr Beast started making YouTube videos when he was 11!
2. Aquarium Info. So entertaining and educational! She builds aquariums, eco systems, teaches us about marine life, travels to the animals natural habitats, builds unique structures out of all kinds of materials. Highly recommend if your kids are into these kinds of things! I get hooked on her videos too!
3. Dude Perfect. Trick shots! So fun to watch AND also so fun to try and recreate at home.
4. Colin Amazing. A group of brothers doing trick shots around the home with basketballs, ping pong balls, footballs, dice, and anything else you can think of! So fun to watch and inspired Milo to try the tricks at home!
5. Kaiju Capi. Dinosaurs! He plays Jurassic World games and does battles between all kinds of dinosaurs. Milo is so into it. There is some mild video game violence (Dino battles) but, we’re okay with that.
6. TD Bricks. LEGO! Omg these videos are fun. Building old LEGO sets, building new LEGO sets, creating his own LEGO structures. The videos are edited so well and his voiceovers are so entertaining. Love!
7. Preston. These two guys are goofy and Milo cackles when he watches them. His favourite videos of theirs are when they race and try to break through walls of different materials (chocolate vs. jelly beans, etc.). I do always explain to Milo that these are adults who have all the safety equipment and training to do these things safely. It sparks good conversation between us about what we see online vs. what we do at home.
Let me know your faves!!!
