Kids' channels on YouTube have become a global phenomenon, captivating young audiences and amassing millions of subscribers. These channels offer a unique blend of education and entertainment, providing parents with a valuable resource to engage and educate their children.
In this episode, Augie and Grant discuss the popularity and monetization of kids' channels on YouTube. They highlight the success of channels like Ms. Rachel's "Songs for Littles", and "Cocomelon" and explore the reasons behind their rapid growth. They also discuss different strategies for monetizing kids' channels, such as creating educational products and subscription services. Augie and Grant compare the potential of starting a kids' channel versus a gaming channel and emphasize the importance of providing value and engaging content to attract and retain viewers.
