ReactJs: What should the PropTypes be for this.props.children?

Question

Given a simple component that renders its children:

class ContainerComponent extends Component {
  static propTypes = {
    children: PropTypes.object.isRequ         


        

Answer 1

Example:

import React from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';

class MenuItem extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            

                {this.props.children}
            
        );
    }
}

MenuItem.defaultProps = {
    href: "/",
    children: "Main page"
};

MenuItem.propTypes = {
    href: PropTypes.string.isRequired,
    children: PropTypes.string.isRequired
};

export default MenuItem;

Picture: Shows you error in console if the expected type is different
