It seems like pop culture is evolving along with age. For example, the Rolling Stones are not well-known to today’s youth, but “Rolling in the Deep” is. According to a recent study of 2,000 parents of young children, children aged 6 to 12 were much more inclined to know the well-known Adele song (41%) than the legendary rock and roll band (28%).
Most parents are unaware of the present kid culture
How popular is kid culture among parents? Surprisingly, only 29% know the TV series “Steven Universe” despite two in five individuals being familiar with the films “Moana” (42%), Frozen (43%), and the iconic “Baby Shark” (40%).
The study, which OnePoll carried out for Kahoot!, demonstrates that families have so much to learn about each other’s hobbies, and doing so may be a good approach to strengthening bonds between them. According to 63% of adults, children often become delighted when their parents are interested in or expertise in a topic they find interesting. Six in ten parents (61%) are keen to find out more regarding the interests or hobbies of their children.
More than six in ten parents (63%) are encouraging their children to value the same activities they did when they were young. Sports participation (59%), playing video games (58%), card games (56), and trivia (54%) are among the activities.
Parents find the music choice of their children intolerable
Around 57% of music-loving adults encourage their children to enjoy the same songs they did. Their playlists include Celine Dion (42%), Whitney Houston (39%), Madonna (38%), and Backstreet Boys (34%), in that order.
Though creating a playlist for different age groups could require some work, approximately half (47%) of adults find their children’s music intolerable. That may be why only 24% of parents correctly identified a photo of the girl group “Fifth Harmony,” which set a record for Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards in 2018. However, most parents (73%) consider it a milestone when their kids enjoy their pastime hobbies.
