What is this trend
Mom, Dad, I swear it’s for studying😬
The trend plays on a familiar situation between parents and kids: asking for an expensive iPad for school, only to use it for something completely different. It’s a scenario many families can relate to, no matter where they’re from.
In this trend, creators make a convincing case for an iPad until the tablet flips around to reveal a drum app. Suddenly, the study tool becomes a drum kit, and the creator starts playing along with the beat.
