A hundred million children's drawings, searchable, charting twenty years of what kids cared about

Kids Trends

Riley Walz scraped over 100 million drawings and paintings from Artsonia, an online gallery of student art, and made the lot searchable: type anything and you get a trend line from 2005 to now plus a grid of the actual drawings, each dated. Pikachu peaks twice, in 2017 and 2020; Baby Yoda is a single spike; Martin Luther King Jr. bumps every January like clockwork. It is Google Trends for the crayon economy, and the source material is unimprovable.
