Well, this post is merely my 2 cents about today's kids' interests. This topic came up after today, former Indonesian junior singer, Tina toon became TT in Twitter. Her popular song entitled "Bolo-bolo" was a huge hit at the time when I was like 7 years old. I suddenly realized that in my childhood I still had experience like my older sisters had back at their childhood moments : Listening and Singing Kids' Songs. But today, it's totally different. We can hardly find kids singing songs suitable for their age, in fact they prefer to sing pop songs (e.g: love songs). It even makes sense when my sister who is kindergarten teacher told me one of the biggest problem in her school now : Kids can count and read, but they can't sing kindergarten songs. Instead, they sing band's hits which are pop, pop rock, malay pop, etc. Funnily, when they were asked the meaning of some phrases in the lyrics, they said they had no idea! Fohsyo! Cos they are still lil kids! lol! What has happened to kids today? Is it because the music production houses don't promote kids music anymore? or vice versa? where kids aren't into it anymore? Doesn't it inculcate bad impact by exposing children to something they barely know about?
