YouTube is a much loved video streaming site where you can create your own channels and put up any content you want. But any content means exactly that, and if you are looking for some entertainment or educational videos for your children there is a risk they will find something unsuitable. With YouTube Kids you do not need to worry, this app has programs only for kids, and there are a lot of features that you as their parents can use too.
So, how does it work? In easy terms it is a mobile app on both Android and Apple devices, and they can watch on any mobile device like a phone or tablet. There are also many options to make it work on your TV, like a streaming device or having a Smart TV. Once the app is open your children can watch their favorite shows with no need for you to worry that it will swap to something else.
There are many different programs for kids of all ages and levels, and you can decide which ones they can see. In the app are a series of controls where you can decide on the programs, but also how long the app is open for or how many episodes. You can favorite a particular show, or also block some if you want. These controls mean your child is only getting what they or you want them to see and you can leave them with it and not worry about them making changes.

There is a home screen with a series of videos available immediately, and you can set the age appropriateness of the programs so that only ones fit for your child’s age appear.
