The Kidcore Trend and Nostalgic Monthly Boxes Made for Fans
Updated by Shannon Ratliff
If you've seen the word kidcore around these days and felt utterly out of the loop, you're not alone. This new trend, sparked in part by social media like TikTok and Tumblr, is all about the colorful, bright nostalgia of childhood. From old-school video games to binders with vibrant colors, it's about embracing the lighter side of youth. It's made new again by not only Gen-Z, but also moms who want to bring those carefree, joyful spaces to their own kids' lives.
What is Kidcore style?
Specifically, the kidcore aesthetic is a nod to the pastel, neon, and bright colors of the 1990s and early 2000s. Pop culture icons like My Little Pony, Lisa Frank, Care Bears, Beanie Babies, and of course those patented pastel butterfly hair clips are all back and better than ever with kidcore.
Retro toys, cartoons, smiley face stickers, stuffed animals, and beads are all part of the cultural zeitgeist making its way into fashion trends beyond the indie aesthetic. Tie dye is the most recognizable kidcore style millennials are embracing again these days.
