Critical reception

Rap-Up described 'Children' as an "Irrisistible pop-gem that you can knock in your whip or jump rope to." It has been credited for its upbeat catchy tune and boasts an infectious hook.[2]

Arjanwrites gave the song a positive review, complimenting Brown on "serving up something fresh, but also for speaking her mind honestly with a compelling call to action that will leave listeners inspired." They praise Brown for creating a song that is fresh and different, yet distinctly very 'VV Brown.'[3]

Music video

The video is set in downtown Los Angeles and shows Brown riding her bike through the street, playing basketball with the people, dancing down the sidewalk, as well as showing groups of families. The video also shows Brown standing amongst people reflecting the town in a mirror to the camera. Brown described the video as 'Real' and shows her enjoying the simple things in life. [4]
