In this article, we'll go through some of the best VTubers that are suitable for kids, or at the very least keep it PG-rated.

It makes perfect sense that children would be drawn to VTubers, who have bright colours, elegant designs, and whacky characters.

Many of you may have already seen them appear on YouTube, Twitch, or other streaming platforms. VTubers typically target young adults and teenagers, so they often get away with using profanity or dirty jokes. It is a pity that so few are family-friendly, seeing as they have such an appeal to children. However, a few saints within the VTuber community have the youth in mind, so they try to make the content suitable for them.

What Are VTubers?

Before we introduce our children to VTubers, we should grasp what they are. Virtual YouTubers, VTubers for short, are virtual avatars controlled using motion-tracking technology. As a person in front of the camera moves and talks, their actions are mimicked by an avatar in real-time, producing the illusion of a lively cartoon character.

VTubers have been able to live stream and interact with their viewers thanks to this technology, which makes the idea so fun and engaging. It is communicating with an entirely new persona almost like children being able to talk to their favourite cartoon characters. 

Surprisingly VTubers are not limited by being virtual characters and can create the exact same kind of content produced by conventional YouTubers. VTubers can perform karaoke, post Let's Plays, make music videos, do parodies, and even hold Q&As! 

The online VTubing community has grown in recent years with individuals appearing from all over the internet. Because most people can now afford streaming hardware and VTuber maker software has become more available, independent VTubers are increasingly common.

An avatar or VTuber model is necessary for VTubers to begin their career. An avatar has to look good on stream, but it also has to perfectly represent their online identity and persona. This is how their audience will always picture them, so careful planning and deliberation are required.

Having a competent artist create their VTuber characters is the most common approach for VTubers. Most mainstream VTubers invest in high-quality avatars to create their VTuber persona. A good VTuber commission can be the key to a high-quality viewing experience. In order for a VTuber to appear more lifelike their avatar has to be animated well and fully functional. A glitchy avatar can really ruin the effect.

Why Are The Youth So Fond Of Them Why?

It’s time to address the elephant in the room. The vast majority of VTubers adopt anime-style avatars. Because VTubing originated in Japan, it makes sense that VTubers adopt the character design of their favourite cartoon characters. Anime has spread around the world, and it is possible that one of the reasons why VTubers are so liked by young people today is because of this.

Streaming video games has become as popular as playing them. Watching people play video games on the internet has become just as common as playing them. Since the days of old, gaming has developed a lot. Streaming platforms like Twitch see 88% of all content being people playing video games. A whopping 57% of viewers are between the ages of 3 and 17 years old. In other words, a lot of kids enjoy watching games, and VTubers like to broadcast them.

Live streams are unpredictable, so we want to let you know where to find the best family-friendly content. Nevertheless, there is always a small chance that something inappropriate might slip out. On the other hand, you can stick to their pre-recorded and edited videos to minimise the likelihood of this happening.

But for now, let’s get into our top 3 VTubers that are suitable for our kids:

Gawr Gura

Gawr Gura is the most popular VTuber on YouTube, and for good reason. Her adorable shark head hoodie and cute high-pitched voice make her a fan favourite. Her cheerful and bubbly personality makes her extremely popular with children, particularly her infectious laughter.

There are a wide variety of family-friendly games to pick from on Gawr Gura, including Among Us and Fish. She always plays a variety of funny indie games, which always result in new funny situations. As long as the game is appropriate for your children, the stream should be fine.

Senniursa

Despite having just 2,200 subscribers, Senniursa is an underground indie VTuber who could explode at any moment. Because she is so softly spoken and does not typically yell (like Gawr Gura), there is very little chance of jumpscares on her channel. She mainly broadcasts Minecraft with her colleagues, which is what young people want to do.

Senniursa also hosts study streams where her audience can study alongside her for company. She does a great job of pushing the message that even cool VTubers have to study, and she serves as a great role model by hosting study live streams!

Sapphy Stars

We believe Sapphy Stars will be a big hit with kids, as well as being another VTuber who is gaining popularity. Every girl's dream is to be a pink magical princess, and Sapphy just so happens to take on this form as her VTuber avatar.

Furthermore, Nintendo games, which are well-known for being family-friendly, are mainly what Sapphy plays. Games like Detective Pikachu, My Tamagotchi Forever, Animal Crossing, and Mario Odyssey are among the titles she plays. All of these games are well-known favourites from childhood.

Because Sapphy's channel is one that children can watch comfortably, her playful, high-pitched voice grabs the attention of her viewers.
