'''Kidcore''' is an aesthetic that centers around bright colors, nostalgia for icons from the 90s, and kid themes. While its origins can be traced back to the 1990s/80s, it appears the aesthetic is a nostalgia-based creation of the 2010s.
==Visual==
Common motifs in Kidcore visuals are bright colors frequently used on children's toys, most frequently highly saturated versions of the traditional primary colors (red, yellow, and blue), playgrounds, stuffed animals such as Beanie Babies and TY, robot pets like Furbies, Lisa Frank artwork, rainbows, and other kid themes. Other common themes involved in Kidcore include:
*Bedtime stories
*Books
*Colorful bookshelves
*Watercolors and detailed linework
*Rabbits and mice
*Alphabet blocks
*Games Cupboard
*Balloons

==Architecture==
The architectural variants of kidcore - known as "Wonka PoMo", or Memphis Jr. due to it being inspired by the 1980s Memphis aesthetic - predate the rest of the genre, and can be said to have inspired the 2010s popularity via nostalgia. Examples typically come from theme parks and stores which market goods to children such as Toys 'R' Us and Gymboree.
==Music==
*Kero Kero Bonito - "I'd Rather Sleep"
*"PoPiPo" - Hatsune Miku
*"It’s a Kids World" - Masafumi Takada
*"Two time" - Jack Stauber
*Kero Kero Bonito - "Flamingo"
