Top 70 Youth Trends in July

From LED Piggy Banks to Kid-Friendly Tablets

— July 25, 2015 — Life-Stages
From tech-powered education that speaks to the youngest generation's affinity for digital tools to youth-targeted marketing that seeks to foster relationships with consumers at an early age, many innovations contained in the top July 2015 youth trends point to the future.

Creativity-spurring apps such as Loopimal gamify the process of creating something new, making an educational activity seamlessly entertaining. Loopimal encourages children to make their own beats by creating animated animals to dance along to the melody they create.

Additionally, products and services aimed at introducing youth to gardening in what can be seen as a progression of the urban farming movement. As millennials begin to settle down and start families, these values are sure to start emerging in youth-targeted products for their children.
