There’s no end to TikTok trends. There is a new TikTok trend every other day but only a few get viral appreciation and applause from the internet. A new trend is going viral and for all the right reasons. There’s a new viral sensation on the internet – and it’s Grandma.
I’m talking about the viral grandmother competing with Ms. Rachel to get her grandbaby’s attention. It’s so adorable that you would soon be rooting for the grandma to be successful in getting her grandbaby’s attention.
It all started when TikTok mom @heavenlys.mom shared a video of her mom’s latest obsession. The internet completely lost it but in the most cute way possible. Treasure Heaven (@treasureheaven) posted a video that her mom got jealous of Ms. Rachel and the attention her daughter, heavenly was giving to her educational videos and not her grandmother.
This is what made Grandma take matters into her hands which later on became a viral trend. In the TikTok video posted on Treasure Heaven’s (@treasureheaven) Tiktok, she’s telling the story of how it all happened and how her mother, Nina Peterson felt that her grandmother wasn’t interested in her video calls anymore and decided to sing and record her poems so she can watch them like she watches Ms. Rachel’s videos and We Think Grandma Ate This One.
Rachel Anne Accurso, also widely known as Ms. Rachel on the internet is a YouTuber, Singer, Songwriter, and Social Media Personality. She’s famous for her YouTube Series “Songs for Littles”. She has a huge following of 13.7M subscribers on her YouTube channel alone.
She makes engaging videos for young kids that they love to watch. This is what Heavenly also loved watching and what inspired her grandmother to sing her poems so she again takes interest in their video calls.
Grandparents are often very close with their grandkids. They have this special bond with their grandkids and take it quite personally if they feel they aren’t getting undivided attention from their grandkids. While kids love watching engaging and interesting videos on the internet these days, it’s quite a dilemma for grandparents to deal with.
We couldn’t contain our excitement seeing this trend going viral because we have been working on solving this problem with Zoog. Our founders Yoav Oren and Matan Guttman felt this gap first when they were struggling to establish this bond between their kids and parents. They soon realized how their friends often struggle with getting their kids to talk to their grandparents who live away from them.
They wanted to give their kids the chance to build a bond with their grandparents because the love we get from our grandparents and parents often becomes the foundation for how we receive love in our adult lives.
When they sat down to track the problem, they realized that the kids didn’t feel engaged and invested in simple video calls with their grandparents. They then decided to use technology to bring back the classic bedtime story time with grandparents but this time virtually.
This is how Zoog was created; to give grandparents a platform to record poems and bedtime stories for their grandkids regardless of the distance. These weren’t just simple recorded videos but an experience similar to real-time storytime. This was made possible with the use of AR-VR technology which allows grandparents to use effects to create different scenes and put on different characters from the story to make it a real-time experience for their grandkids.
People in the comments were quick to see how good the graphics on her video are and we can’t gatekeep from you all.
For everyone wondering, how does she such a crazy job with the graphics, she made the videos using Zoog. Are you feeling a little jealous of the Grandma and her content creation skills? You don’t have to. You can create these stunning visuals that will go with your story with our application.
