Children Acting on Unboxing Videos We have all heard about people making money out of videos uploaded on the Internet, but have you ever heard about unboxing videos made by children? In France, it is something new: children have them filmed by their parents when they unboxe gifts like on birthday or Christmas. These videos are very popular amongst the 3 to 9 years old children. Until now, nothing extraordinary, apart from the fact that these videos are used to promote toys and parents are making money out of them. French children who turn on TV or on advertising are protected by a status that gives them the right to have money from their acting job and it also limits the time they spend on set to protect their childhood. In that case, children who are filmed by their parents have no status because they have no contract of employment. Associations are organizing itself to apply the French labor law and make these children protected.
