                            Music recommender systems are increasingly present in our lives, and it  is important to keep trying to improve  recommendations in order to make them  match the users preferences as well as possible. To achieve this, a vast amount of  song and user data has to be analysed  and taken into account. One of the approaches to do this, includes analyzing different audio features in order to find  other songs with similar traits. The majority of the research and data in this sector is focused around adults, with little  research surrounding children, which can  result in worse recommendations for this  demographic. In this paper, the focus  is shifted towards children with the purpose of filling that gap. This is achieved  by examining the prominence of specific  song features among children of different  age groups, expanding the knowledge on  listening habits of a major demographic.  More specifically, the research presented  in this paper explores the prominence of  various song features, aiming to find a  connections between these features and  the listening habits of children of specific  age ranges from 8-18. This paper’s conclusions will offer potential enhancements,  which can improve existing recommender  systems by considering findings for their  design. These findings will therefore allow  for a more tailored experience for children  of different age ranges, increasing overall  user experience.
