What Parents Need to Know

This video is a short, wholesome clip of a parent and child making a candy together. The parent is supportive and reassures the child ('It's okay. I can make you a new one.'), modeling patience and teamwork. There is no violence, scary content, or mature themes. The only concern is the title, which references the adult show 'Squid Game'—but the video itself is completely unrelated and safe. Kids will learn about following a recipe and the value of trying again after a mistake.
