Kidulting Trend Report

Watch the replays for our 30-min webinars on Kidulting in North America and Western Europe

Gen Z is growing up, but even though they’re just entering adulthood they already yearn for childhood. Millennials pioneered the first wave of kidulting, now Gen Z is following suit, but of course they’re doing it their own way. This gen doesn’t just want to escape the stresses of being a grown-up, they want to heal their inner child and more.

In this report we explore why Gen Z adults are bringing playtime with them as they age up, how they’re using their big kid money to buy toys, cartoon merch, and kid-ified experiences, and what brands need to know to appeal to them.
