Doo doo doo doo doo doo! While it exploded into a global phenomenon thanks to the South Korean company Pinkfong's 2016 video, "Baby Shark" existed long before that. Its roots are often traced back to campfire songs or chants, possibly even originating from a German song called "Kleiner Hai" (Little Shark) with a slightly more gruesome ending! Different versions circulated in camps and playgrounds for years, often with hand motions representing the different shark family members' jaws. Its viral success speaks to its simple structure and universal appeal for toddlers and preschoolers.
