What you get
Enhancing online safety for children
We are dedicated to ensuring that the content on YouTube Kids is appropriate for families by employing automated filters developed by our expert teams, human oversight, and feedback from parents. While our safeguards are robust, occasional inappropriate content may still slip through. Therefore, we continuously enhance our protective measures and introduce additional features to assist parents in creating the ideal experience for their families.
Tailor your child's experience using Parental Controls
Manage screen time: Establish a time restriction for your children's viewing activities to encourage a healthy balance between screen time and other activities.
Monitor viewing history: By reviewing the "watch it again" page, you will always be aware of the content your children have watched and the new interests they are exploring.
Content blocking: If you encounter a video you don't like, you can block both the specific video and the entire channel, preventing them from appearing again.
Content flagging: You have the option to notify us about inappropriate content by flagging a video for assessment. Flagged content is assessed 24/7.
Facilitate unique experiences for each child
You can create up to eight individual profiles for children, each customized with distinct viewing preferences, video recommendations, and settings. Opt for the "Approved Content Only" mode to manually select the videos, channels, or collections you permit your child to access. Under this mode, children cannot browse for videos. The "Preschool" mode, tailored for children aged 4 and below, features videos that cultivate creativity, playfulness, learning, and exploration. The "Younger" mode allows children aged 5-8 to delve into various topics like songs, cartoons, and crafts. For kids aged 9 and above, the "Older" mode enables them to search and explore additional content such as popular music and gaming videos intended for children.
Diverse video content for diverse children
Our extensive library showcases a broad array of family-friendly videos covering various topics to spark children's creativity and playfulness. From their preferred shows and music to tutorials on constructing a model volcano (or making slime ;-), there's something for every child's interest.

Parental configuration is necessary to ensure the best possible experience for your child.
