hi LOL so
i would admit kidcore has been like a large comfort aesthetic for me these days. mainly because of the joy and whimsy it has :3 and when i initially went to this wiki to see the stuff about it i did. not expect the absurdly large list of media there 😭 i understand having to clear it up and minimise the list ("This page is not supossed to be a content dump for every single kids show" true...) because i do understand it was getting very Cluttered. however i found the absurdly large list funny so i'm here to archive it in its honour o7
This list sources from the last revision of the Kidcore page that had this list, and can be found here. This is not a word for word archive of the list as there are corrections and additional info provided.
