From the colourful Unicorn Frap hoopla, to the Beanie Babies craze that went dangerously wrong, some flash-in-the-pan fads are not so out-of-the-blue after all. They're carefully and painstakingly created to make us want to jump on board, change our behaviour...and even convince others to join in, too!
For curious kids, 8-12.

How quickly did Pokémon Go spread around the world? Days! But there's a downside to becoming so popular so quickly. This episode looks at the turbo-charged rise and fall of the pocket monster game. Plus...the weird and wiggly hobble skirt craze that made walking nearly impossible for women and teens. Why would anybody WEAR THAT?! (Hint: to fit in.)
For curious kids, 8-12.
