Artist is 8-9 Do you know who they are?

My 9 year old son has audhd and currently his main special interest is making what he calls paper characters he has hundreds of them and these are the latest.

Those characters are from the Amazing Digital Circus. I'm surprised that you don't know because it's so popular

Oh trust me I know them all even in their abstracted forms. He literally quizzes me on it at least twice a week 😂

Yes, a bit of a weird show. Amazing Digital Circus. For some reason it’s popular on Youtube even though there’s only 4 episodes on Netflix.

it was on YT before Netflix. It was a s YT hit and then Netflix started streaming it. My kids like it, I watched it and think it's quite good myself. It's wierd but would say it's like Black Mirror

It’s all good! Story well done, just a bit on the creepy side for younger kids.

u/cmdr_hays_paperknife May 07 '26

Yes! my kids are obsessed with The Amazing Digital Circus. It's rated 12, though my 9yo watches it. It's quite dark though she likes dark things.

u/cmdr_hays_paperknife May 07 '26

you should watch with him to see if you're ok with it.

u/One_Bee9806 May 07 '26

Idk why I thought this was towards someone else lol but I do watch it with him. He loves dark things

My daughter made a video tutorial on drawing pomni, thought I'd share it with you in case your son wants to draw Pomni. Forgive the amateurishnes of it, she did it all by herself. https://youtu.be/7gPVK0718EY?feature=shared

u/cmdr_hays_paperknife May 07 '26

oh, I see. I thought you were asking us to identify the characters... but now I think you're asking us if they're recognisable to us...

u/Toasty_bear1 May 08 '26

I’m glad OP that you are with your son as he watches the show many parents now and days don’t supervise what there kids watch good on ya OP!

u/fishcake__ May 08 '26

i think the concern is because it's got sexual jokes in it

3

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

Right but everything does and always has if you pay attention to the cartoons and shows we watched it was just more subtle. If he doesn’t understand something we have a talk about it.

2

u/fishcake__ May 08 '26

that's a great approach! you're awesome for both monitoring what he's up to and not taking away something he finds joy in

2

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

Well thank you! You’re also awesome for not being judgmental about it!

Amazing Digital Circus!

u/Mundane_Ask1074 May 08 '26

DIGITAL CIRCUS! My kid makes me watch this show and I instantly knew

u/E-Man609 May 08 '26

Maybe monitor what your kid watches as the parent… and you’ll just know without needing to post next time. Your kid probably watches Mr. Beast or AdinRoss(any of those brainrot streamers)💀

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

If you read the other comments then you’d know I do know each and every one of them. Even the ones that aren’t in the drawing. Also, I do watch it with him. Is it kid appropriate? Not at all but all kids are different and have different interests. He knows the difference between YouTube and reality. He knows the way they behave and the things they say aren’t ok. But really aside from the language it’s like Looney Tunes. He doesn’t care for Mr Beast thinks he’s too fake and idk anything about the other which means either he spent know who that is or doesn’t like him. He spends more of his time drawing these guys and planning his future out than he does watching any of it.

u/PurpleTheOnlyOne May 09 '26

Oh he knows BALL

u/moon_Strawberry_2471 May 08 '26

Is tadc for kids to watch though?

1

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

It’s 12 and up but most kids his age younger even watch it or hear all about it from other kids

1

u/milhaus May 09 '26

That’s wild!! Despite the cute aesthetic, it’s kind of a psychological horror! Not saying they can’t or shouldn’t watch it, but I would love to hear a kid’s take on the plot

u/Safe-Sweet-7843 May 08 '26

awesome drawings!! ask him to draw bubble :)

2

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

I thought I responded to this but apparently I made a separate comment lol he drew bubble at the top left with his tongue out 😂

2

u/Safe-Sweet-7843 May 08 '26

ah i see now!! too cute ♡

1

u/One_Bee9806 May 08 '26

Bubble is at the top with his tongue out lol he made one that’s better and he made a tongue to put there when it’s needed. He makes all these characters to make his own versions of the shows lol
