Kristen Bell Admits Her Kids Aren't Interested in “Frozen” — but Appreciate 'They Can Go to College Because of It'
The actress shares daughters Delta, 9, and Lincoln, 11, with husband Dax Shepard
Kristen Bell's daughters might not be a part of the Frozen obsession, but there's one thing they can appreciate about the franchise.
The Nobody Wants This star, 44, was recently interviewed by Vanity Fair about her previous projects and was asked if her daughters Lincoln and Delta, whom she shares with husband Dax Shepard, 49, are any more interested in the Frozen franchise now that they're a little older.
“They certainly appreciate it in the fact that they can go to college because of it, but they’re not part of the Frozen phenomenon," Bell admits.
"Because kids are meant to make you feel grounded and they are meant to reject things their parents are involved in. Even if they secretly liked it, they would never tell me.”

In May, Bell spoke to PEOPLE at the opening night of Reefer Madness: The Musical at The Whitley in Los Angeles. When asked how she would feel if her daughters followed in their mom’s footsteps, Bell shared that it was Shepard who influenced her to keep an open mind.
“You know it's interesting, when I first thought about it, I thought, ‘Oh, I don't want them to be actors. There's too much rejection,’ " the star told PEOPLE.
“Then my husband said, ‘Wait, do you like your life? Do you have fun? Are you overpaid? Do you get to be creative every day?’ I said, ‘Yeah.’ He said, ‘Why would you not want that for your kids?’"
When it comes to the advice Bell would give her kids if they do become actors, she said, “I'd have to think longer and harder about advice."
“I would just say, ‘There's a lot of rejection, but brush it off because if you're doing what you love, something will find you,' ” added Bell.
That same month, Bell spoke with PEOPLE about her PLEZi Nutrition partnership, where the mom of two said it's important for her and Shepard to model healthy behavior for their kids in all regards.
"We always make up in front of them if anyone gets snarky or frustrated or fights, which we all do."
She explained, "We do not have the makeup, our conflict resolution, be behind closed doors. Even if at dinner, let's say, one of us is frustrated and is a little snarky and then we go to bed. We'll apologize to each other the next morning."
"Then we will apologize and make amends to each other in front of the kids so that they can see how conflict resolution actually happens," Bell shared.
