10 Adorable Kids Who Took Social Media by Storm

By Ronald Smith

There’s no exact recipe for creating viral videos, but one thing is clear: they often tug at our heartstrings. And who can pull our heartstrings better than cute and talented kids?

These 10 kids captured the hearts of the internet in 2014 with their charming antics and undeniable cuteness. Some of them have been in the spotlight for a while, while others became overnight sensations by accident. But what’s truly astonishing is that they are all under the age of 10. Brace yourself for extreme cuteness!

Noah Ritter – The “Apparently” Kid

In August 2014, this incredibly clever kid gained fame after a video of his interview with WNEP-TV was uploaded to their YouTube channel.

Can you believe it? This incredible video is called “Apparently” This Kid Is Awesome, Steals The Show During Interview. And let me tell you, it lives up to its name!

In the video, I’m being interviewed at a carnival. They ask me about a ride, and apparently, I had a great time there. Not only that, but I also had the chance to appear on live television. Pretty cool, huh?

Believe it or not, this isn’t the only time I’ve been in the spotlight. I’ve actually been invited to be on ‘The Ellen Show’ a few times. And guess what? I even got to star in my very own commercial. How awesome is that?

Let Me Introduce Myself: Zhang Junhao, The Talent Show Kid

You might not recognize my name, Zhang Junhao, but I’m sure you’ve seen a video of me somewhere. I’m that little guy who loves to dance and make people smile.

I’m only 3 years old, but that didn’t stop me from auditioning for a Chinese talent show. My goal was simple: to spread a bit of happiness. And you know what? I made it to the next round! How amazing is that?

There’s this YouTube account called DramaFever that uploaded a video of someone’s first audition. It went viral because the person was an amazing dancer and could do all sorts of different styles. Can you believe it? It has 56 million views!

Yebin: The Kid Who Loves Cookies

Have you heard of Baby Yebin? She became really popular after her mom, who’s from Korea, posted a video online. It’s so funny! Her mom was trying to teach her about “stranger danger,” but Yebin had her own ideas. People loved it! Right now, she has almost 45,000 subscribers on YouTube, and that funny video has over 500,000 views.

Mateo: The Kid Who Just Wants Cupcakes

In March, I came across a video online that made my heart melt. It featured Mateo Beltran, an energetic 3-year-old who was determined to have cupcakes instead of dinner. He already had lunch, so he thought cupcakes would be a suitable replacement. But his mom didn’t agree and denied his request. Undeterred, Mateo went behind his mom’s back and sought cupcakes from his grandma. What happened next was a delightful and heartwarming exchange between Mateo and his mom, Linda.

Ever since that video went viral, Mateo has become a bit of a celebrity. He even appeared on ‘The Ellen Show’ and received the cupcakes he desired, of course. In order to support his future college education, Mateo’s parents have started selling T-shirts with his famous phrase. But that’s not all – a portion of the proceeds is also donated to the Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary.

It’s amazing how a simple video of a determined little boy can bring so much joy and make a difference in the lives of others. This reminds me of another pair of talented kids called Zony and Yony. They are known for their incredible dancing skills and have captured the hearts of many. Their videos have gone viral, just like Mateo’s, and they continue to spread happiness wherever they go.

Hey there! Let me tell you about Zony and Yony, two awesome twin sisters from Taipei, Taiwan. These girls became famous because of their amazing dance videos on YouTube. One of their videos, where they danced to a K-Pop song called “Bar Bar Bar” by Crayon Pop, has over 6 million views! Can you believe it?

Their fame grew so much that they were invited to go on ‘The Ellen Show’ in May. And guess what? They were such a hit that they got invited back several times to perform! During their last appearance, they showed off their awesome dance moves to Taylor Swift’s super catchy song “Shake it off”. I couldn’t stop dancing while watching them!

Now let me introduce you to another incredible kid – Breanna Youn:

This little girl is just too cute to resist! Her mom has been sharing videos of her on Vine, where she has gained a huge following of 311.7K people. That’s amazing, isn’t it? Breanna’s videos are so delightful, you can’t help but smile when you watch them.

I gotta tell you, it’s crazy how this little girl became a superstar! It all started with her Instagram account. Now, she has a whopping 1.2 million followers. Can you believe that? She’s just a regular 5-year-old girl, but she’s got the numbers to prove she’s a big deal!

What I love about her videos is that they capture her everyday silliness. They’re so darn adorable! Originally, she lived in Korea, but something amazing happened. She went on a vacation to Saudi Arabia, and get this, her fans there actually paid for the whole trip! Can you imagine? And guess what? She decided to stay there afterward. Talk about cool, right?

Have you heard of James Hashimoto? He’s the Action Movie Kid! Move over Schwarzenegger and Van Damme, because this guy is the new action hero in town. Let me tell you, he’s got some serious skills. His dad, Daniel Hashimoto, works as an animator for Dreamworks, so you know the special effects in his videos are top-notch.

Hey there! Have you seen James in the 2014 YouTube rewind video? Well, rumor has it that we’ll be seeing more of Action Movie Kid in the future.

Ty: The Kid Who Got Poked in The Heart

Guess what? Kids can get into arguments too, just like adults. This video, originally shared on Facebook and later on YouTube by Tara Willmott, shows a group of three-year-olds in Arkansas, including Ty and the Roberts sisters, having a little argument about the weather.

It’s super cute to watch them interact, saying things like “You’re not real, I’m real.” The video has already gotten over 12 million views!

Sadie: The Kid Who Loves Her Brother

We all have a tough time growing up, but 5-year-old Sadie had a particularly hard time accepting that her 3-month-old brother Carson wasn’t going to be as young or as cute anymore. And let’s be honest, he is pretty adorable.

So, get this, guys. There’s this video that went viral, and it features Sadie, this adorable little girl who just can’t come to terms with the fact that her brother is growing up. I mean, it’s a total meltdown, and it’s been watched over 30 million times. Can you believe it?

Oh, let me tell you about Tre!

Imagine finding out that you’re gonna have another sibling. It’s a big deal, right? Well, it was definitely a big deal for Tre when his mom dropped the bombshell on him. The way this kid expressed his frustration with the situation was just something else. You have to see it!

His mom, Shanee, managed to capture the whole thing on video, and let me tell you, it’s been making waves on the internet. Over 2.5 million views! People couldn’t get enough of Tre’s honesty and passion. The video got so popular that he and his mom were invited to appear on ‘The Ellen Show,’ where they were in for a big surprise.
