TikTok Accounts for Relatable Laughs
Funny TikTok Dads
@brandonfloyd7220: Brandon Floyd went viral after his hilarious impersonations of his preteen son hit TikTok. These days, he’s still creating content that pokes fun at the middle-and-high school set, but his videos about his younger children bring just as many laughs.
@fitdadceo: Dave Ogleton, aka “FitDad” doles out a perfect balance of “dad jokes” and deadpan, dry humor about common parenting complaints and moments. His spot-on delivery and wide range of jokes are definitely fine-tuned at home thanks to his six kids.
TikTok Moms Who Get It
@hotmomma95: Relatable mom Kristin Artega sets a lot of her viral mom videos on TikTok to music for added familiarity and giggles. From fighting siblings to messy houses, she knows what you’re up against every day and her parenting videos are expertly funny as a result.
@angelalah325: This mom earned well over 100K followers on TikTok thanks to sass, grit, and content that tends to hang out in the, “WTF is going on around here?” arena, which so many parents can relate to.
TikTok Accounts for Entertainment & Hacks
Disney Family
@MainStreetFam: Do you and your kids live and breathe Disney? These Passholders pump out informative, funny, and magic content year-round to give you your Parks fix, Disney shopping tips, and themed laughs, too.
Family Dance Videos
@afrobysara: If your family loves to get up and dance, or just like watching other parents and their kids act silly and have fun together, search TikTok for family dance videos. Sara Karrit and her uber-talented family create fun dance challenges and show off their impressive moves on TikTok with over 600,000 fans and growing.
Top Parenting Hacks
@momlikeaboss_: Raising tiny humans can be messy and chaotic. Who knew a couple years ago that TikTok would turn into a mega sharing space where so many of the daily annoyances with kids could be solved? There are lots of mom hack accounts on TikTok. This is one of the best, with frequent posts and plenty of “Why didn’t I think of that?” moments for food, learning, outdoor fun, and well beyond.
TikTok Parenting Accounts for Tips & Advice
TikTok Accounts for Organizing and Cleaning
@smallstuffemily: Let’s face it: Keeping your home clean and organized with kids around is a challenge. This mom does it all and simplifies her routines and ideas on TikTok to help parents everywhere declutter, clean up, and get back to the fun.
TikTok Accounts for DIY Projects
@handsonlearning: Rainy days are no match for the parents of TikTok. This creative mama doles out science experiment ideas, easy arts and crafts projects, and imaginative play concepts to get kids away from the screens and learning while they have fun. The best part? You can do all of it yourself, with her simple-to-follow instructions.
TikTok Accounts for Reasonable Parenting Advice
@highimpactclub: It’s a goal talked about a lot in the parenting forums, and probably in your own text chains. So many of us want to shout less, enjoy more, and basically be gentler on ourselves and our kids. But the day-to-day grind of parenting is tough, and sometimes the super touchy-feely parenting advice is unrelatable and feels judge-y. This mom and dad duo do not sugarcoat things (they’ve even posted de-escalation of actual meltdowns!), providing their strategies in a clear, empathic way that makes them easier to digest...and to follow.
