What's Trending?

A trend is something that’s popular for a short period of time. For example, wraparound sunglasses were trendy in the 1980s. A decade later, kids begged their parents for Furbies and Tamogotchis. (Never heard of these toys? Trust us. They were huge.) In recent years, bubble tea has been all the rage. Fashion, toy, and food trends come and go. One thing’s for sure: Trends are fun for journalists to write about.

Junior Journalists, we want to know: What’s trending? Is there a fashion trend that kids in your school are following? Is there a game or activity that your classmates can’t get enough of? Which trends are making a comeback? What do you think will be trending in the future? Tell us! And please, send photos! Ask a teacher, parent, or guardian to send your trend report to us at timeforkids.com/tfkpressclub or tfkpressclub@time.com.
