Then they saw these videos take over YouTube. Similar videos followed, carpeting the entire sidebar. The Jhos watched as these clips appeared in the sidebar next to theirs, one by one. It began with Blucollection (now Blu Toys Club Surprise), an anonymous account that only posted videos of a man’s hands scooting toy figurines across a floor. In 2012, YouTube switched its ranking and recommendation system to favour videos that kept viewers watching longer, and very quickly Mother Goose Club got company. YouTube let them into the company’s ads programme. After the Google meeting, the Jhos saw even more traffic on their channel. Soon enough, YouTube would add an auto-play function that mechanically teed up one video after another. In 2010, the world first met the iPad, a handy device for frazzled parents of toddlers, with an easy-to-use YouTube app.
They were accidental stars on an online platform that would accidentally build the world’s largest kids’ entertainment service. He and his wife – softly spoken professionals who wore glasses and sensible clothes – looked more like PTA parents than YouTube influencers. “You might be the biggest YouTuber in New York,” the staffer replied. Finally, Jho asked the question he was itching to ask: “Why did you call us?” At the meeting, they showed Jho plans for the site’s forthcoming redesign and shared some tips. Now, a YouTube employee was extending an invitation to Google’s Manhattan office. Once, at an event, an employee had handed him a business card, which he thought was a promising sign until he looked down to see the email address – – and no name. He had long since given up on trying to speak to a human from the company. It was the spring of 2011 when he received an email from someone at YouTube, a division of Google. Maybe, instead of television, he thought, we can be the first to do this. He couldn’t find many other videos for kids on YouTube.
Two years in, he started checking the account’s numbers after leaving work. YouTube offered a convenient place to store clips, and, in 2008, Jho started an account there, not thinking much of it.

The Jhos planned to sell DVDs to parents, ginning up interest for a possible TV show. It was like Teletubbies, only less trippy and inane. So they started Mother Goose Club, investing in a studio and hiring a diverse set of actors to don animal costumes and sing Itsy Bitsy Spider and Hickory Dickory Dock.
