The Voice Kids is a German reality talent show created by John de Mol and a junior version of The Voice of Germany. Based on the original The Voice Kids of Holland, the show was developed for children between the ages of 7 and 15. It began airing on Sat.1 on April 5, 2013.

There are five different stages to the show: producers' auditions, blind auditions, battle rounds, sing-offs, and final. There have been twelve winners to date: Michèle Bircher (12), Danyiom Mesmer (14), Noah-Levi Korth (13), Lukas Janisch (13), Sofie Thomas (11), Anisa Celik (10), Mimi & Josefin (13 & 15), Lisa-Marie Ramm (15), Egon Werler (15), Georgia Balke (11), Emma Filipović (14), and Jakob Hebgen (15).

Since its inaugural season, Thore Schölermann has served as host. A second main presenter was introduced in 2015, with Chantal Janzen from 2015 to 2016, Debbie Schippers from 2017 to 2018 and Melissa Khalaj from 2019 onward. Aline von Drateln was a backstage presenter in 2013 and was replaced by Nela Lee in 2014. The coaches for the most recent season were Lena Meyer-Landrut, Álvaro Soler, Wincent Weiss and the duo Michi Beck & Smudo. Other coaches from previous seasons include Stefanie Kloß, Henning Wehland, Tim Bendzko, Johannes Strate, Mark Forster, Sasha Schmitz, the duo Nena & Larissa Kerner, Max Giesinger, the duo The BossHoss and from the band Deine Freunde, Lukas Nimscheck & Flo Sump.

Format

On 25 October 2012, Sat1 announced that they will produce the a children's version of The Voice of Germany with Talpa and Schwartzkopff TV Productions. The new show, The Voice Kids, is based on the format of the original show and focuses on children between the ages of 8 and 15. Performers for the first season had to apply to participate, and about 70 children were cast for the first phase, the "Blind Auditions". The children are onstage with a large, curved curtain around them, effectively concealing their identity from the judges, audience, and viewers. The 3 jury members are sitting in swivel chairs with their backs to the stage. During the performance, they can elect to support a candidate by pressing a buzzer, which will automatically turn their seat towards the stage. At the end of their performance, the curtain drops, revealing the singer who then learns whether any chairs turned for them. If only one judge turns their chair, the candidate is automatically on their team. If more than one chair turns, the candidate chooses who they would like to have as their coach.

The second week of the competition is training week in which the coaches prepare their candidates for the second phase of competition, called the "Battle Round." In the Battle Round three candidates of the same coaching group are chosen to sing the same song as a trio. Each coach then picks one of their three candidates to continue on to the Final round. In season 9, coaches can steal one losing artist from the battle rounds via "Steal Deal." Also, in the same season, the coaches can send an artist directly to the final via "Fast Pass." The Steal Deal discontinued in the following two seasons, before making its return on season 12.

The winner of The Voice Kids receives a training stipend of €15,000 and an optional recording contract. The parents of the victor decide whether they pursue this option or not.

The Voice Kids Germany is the most internationally popular version of The Voice concept with a large YouTube audience for its clips with strong audience interest that stretches far beyond fellow Europeans from Brazil to Vietnam, the Philippines and New Zealand. This is in part due to the fact that the contestants often have a multicultural background with one German parent and one immigrant parent or are first generation German born to an immigrant family. This YouTube impact is exemplified by then-13-year-old performer Laura Kamhuber, born in Austria, whose performance of Dolly Parton's classic "I Will Always Love You" (popularized by Whitney Houston) in the blind audition of the first (2013) series has garnered over 200 million views on YouTube (as of April 17), and is the most watched YouTube video by an Austrian artist. However, the channel deleted that video and re-uploaded in July 2021.

Season 10 (2022)

The tenth season of The Voice Kids in Germany premiered on March 4, 2022 on Sat.1. On October 31, 2021, it was announced that duo coach Michi & Smudo, Álvaro Soler and Wincent Weiss would all return for their second respective seasons, alongside Lena Meyer-Landrut who returned after a one season hiatus. Hosting, Thore Schölermann returned for his tenth season and Melissa Khalaj returned for her fourth season. Keanu Rapp returned as backstage host for the tenth season, alongside season nine winner Egon Werler.

This season featured "All-Star" performances during the audition phase, including Mike Singer (S1), Chiara Castelli (S2), LOI (S5), and Benicio Bryant (S6). Past coaches Henning and Max appeared as well during the performances of Chiara and Benicio respectively.

This season was also known for multiple concerns resulting in additional quarantines. During the battles phase, coach Lena was only able to prepare via videochat, while coaches Smudo and Alvaro had to appear during the battles themselves via video. Alongside this, a multitude of contestants were unable to participate in the battles due to quarantine, including 2 members of De Breaks, Georgia, Lisa of Lisa & Lucy, Liv, Maiara, and Nina. Georgia, Liv, Maiara and Nina participated in a "Community Ticket" where one would get voted by the public to the finals (won by Georgia), while De Breaks and Lucy had to partake in battles without their remaining group members (where both acts lost their battles). De Breaks and Lisa & Lucy would later perform as full groups during the finals as guests.
