Parents might be more concerned about their children's safety more than ever before, but that doesn't stop these top April 2015 youth trends from showing how awesome it is to be a kid today. As though to make up for the extra level of care surrounding children in regards to playtime, bullying and more, technology has swooped into flesh out their days.

To balance these tech-driven trends, the top April 2015 youth collection also features a vest that turns parents into a walking jungle gym, clever packaging that converts into eco-friendly toys and even a garden kit that will get kids outdoors.
