Description
A video app made just for kids
YouTube Kids was created to give kids a more contained environment filled with family-friendly videos on all different topics, igniting your kids’ inner creativity and playfulness.
Parents and caregivers can guide the journey as your kids discover new and exciting interests along the way. Learn more at youtube.com/kids
A safer online experience for kids
We work hard to keep the videos on YouTube Kids family-friendly and use a mix of automated filters built by our engineering teams, human review, and feedback from parents to protect our youngest users online. But no system is perfect and inappropriate videos can slip through, so we’re constantly working to improve our safeguards and offer more features to help parents create the right experience for their families.
Customize your child’s experience with Parental Controls
Limit screen time: Set a time limit for how long your kids can watch and help encourage their transition from watching to doing.
Keep up with what they watch: Simply check the watch it again page and you’ll always know what they’ve watched and the newest interests they’re exploring.
Blocking: Don’t like a video? Block the video or whole channel, and never see it again.
Flagging: You can always alert us to inappropriate content by flagging a video for review. Flagged videos are reviewed 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Create individual experiences as unique as your kids
Create up to eight kid profiles, each with their own viewing preferences, video recommendations, and settings. Choose from “Approved Content Only” mode or select an age category that fits your child, “Preschool”, “Younger”, or “Older”.
Select the “Approved Content Only” mode if you want to handpick the videos, channels and/or collections that you’ve approved your child to watch. In this mode, kids won’t be able to search for videos. The “Preschool” Mode designed for kids 4 and under curates videos that promote creativity, playfulness, learning, and exploration. The “Younger” Mode allows kids 5-8 to explore their interests in a wide variety of topics including songs, cartoons, and crafts. While our “Older” Mode gives kids 9 and up the chance to search and explore additional content such as popular music and gaming videos for kids.
All kinds of videos for all kinds of kids
Our library is filled with family-friendly videos on all different topics, igniting your kids’ inner creativity and playfulness. It’s everything from their favorite shows and music to learning how to build a model volcano (or make slime ;-), and everything in between.

I love this app! And I have suggestions!
Great app! I love everything about this app that kids can block videos.
You can set up a child’s age that’s a really neat feature. My favorite part when you can change your own profile! I’m not really sure if this idea already exists because my account was only set up as a child account. I would love to see a feature where parents can report instead of blocking videos I think it would be a great feature because it will really help to get rid of videos that have disturbing thumbnails or inappropriate videos. And I would love to see a fun feature where you can choose your own story it’s kind of like Minecraft story mode. Or other educational mini games! I think the age feature needs a bit more changes because age 12 or above not all kids watch baby videos. I think you need to add videos like something exciting like videos games as long it doesn’t have swears or anything disturbing and I would be really happy if you add more videos about science, art, cooking, and learning languages and important stuff could help kids to learn about safety. Thank you for reading this Review! I hope one of these ideas help!
Love this app!
So I think you should get this app because it doesn’t let your kid go on anything inappropriate.
If you set it to their age then it will show age appropriate videos. And you can block channels and videos you might think are inappropriate for your kid. And your kid can be educated when they are on the app. Also you kid may also choose their profile picture! And what my kid loves about this app is that there is a cute little intro that shows you kid and me that their in the app. But what I absolutely love about this app is that you can set a timer when this app turns off. So if your little one is on this app then it will not let your kid in any of the videos. Don’t worry if your kid can get into the important stuff to control the app it has a math problem that your kid can’t solve. So this is the reason I think you should really get this app.
Potential to be my child’s best
There is so much potential with this app I would like to suggest a few things hopefully it will get to the right persons.
For starters, I would like to be able to save my child’s favorite videos. I would also like to be able to delete particular videos, without deleting the entire channel or show. For example, there are some Cocomelon videos that I would like to play and there are some I would prefer my child not to see. I would also like for those commonly searched item or favorite videos to replay randomly throughout auto play sessions, and be able to access on demand. It would also be great to choose videos that appear in your chosen language. Sometimes I find that my child watches videos in Bosnian or Russian language, but he’s still learning English, and Spanish. This is major confusing for both me and my child. Please help where and if possible. Thank you.

Children come to their parents.
Not vice versa Along with the fact that we become parents, at the same moment we seem to roll back to our own childhood. And we live again both joyful and sad events of the past. We see in our behavior what we adopted from our mothers, and they often from theirs. And sometimes we don't like it. In some ways, we behave with our children in a completely different way, secretly wishing that our childhood would be just like that. Sometimes we even envy our own children. nine0003
© Iwona Podlasińska
Children help our healing, they are like guides to the world of a pure heart for their parents. But healing is always painful. How much to learn and how much dirt to get out of your heart! Therefore, with the birth of a child, a crisis comes to us. Crisis of new living of childhood traumas.
Children activate our sore spots
We live with a band-aid heart. Instead of healing our wounds, we patch them up and pretend everything is fine.
But of course, nothing good happens. Under the bandage, inflammation begins, and we become even more mentally ill. If someone once betrayed us, then instead of learning forgiveness, we try to forget. And everywhere we see deceit and betrayal. nine0003
Remembering every offense inflicted on us by our parents, we carefully store them, take them out and show off to each other. And it would be possible to forgive and move on, to live in a completely different way. But it is not interesting, and much more difficult!
When a child is born, we have less and less strength to pretend, we can no longer endure constant pain in the soul. In addition, the baby all the time strives to touch this particular place, to step on our favorite corn. When he enters the most difficult age for us, this means that this is exactly the age when it was not easy for us, in our childhood. nine0003
Someone has a very hard time with babies. Most likely, it was during this period that something difficult happened to you.
Maybe Spock put you to bed alone in a room? Or fed every three hours? Or did mom go to work then?
Someone finds it difficult to deal with one-year-olds. For example, somewhere from a year to two, for me personally, a very difficult age of children - they are too hard for me. Because at that time I went to a nursery, and too much has changed for me.
It is very difficult for someone with three-year-olds who are so desperate to defend their rights. Maybe you just didn’t have such rights? It is difficult for someone to survive the period of a child's narcissism, when he needs so much attention and admiration. It is difficult for someone to answer billions of questions, perhaps because they were simply gagged at this age. And so on. nine0003
A child is an excellent indicator of our mental health and our maturity. You can also track at what age you are stuck. When it suddenly starts to seem to you that you can't give anything more to your child and you don't understand what to do with him.
This can happen suddenly at seven, ten, fifteen years. This is just a call from above - pay attention to your wounds sealed with adhesive tape! It's time to treat them! It's time to rip off the bandages, face the truth and heal. Disinfect, clean, sometimes even sew up with a specialist. Also, give it time to heal. nine0003
If it weren't for the children, we could still bathe in the illusion that we are absolutely healthy, that everything is fine with us, that we are already kind and enlightened. And these little men take on the difficult task of opening our eyes to the truth.
Children visit their parents. Not vice versa.
When we realize that we have relationship problems with our parents, it is very difficult for us to do something about it. Because we expect parents to change. That they will take a step towards us. That we will tell them how cruelly they treated us, and they will compensate us for it. And this is not happening. nine0003
Many girls cry and say that they forgive their mother, forgive them, and then they go to her house, and she goes back to her old ways.
And how to live with it? Many girls also talk about the fact that my mother hurt me so much, and therefore she must take the first step.
But there is a certain law that works flawlessly in this world. Children always come to their parents, and not vice versa. If you want healing in your relationship with them, you must come to them. Remove your arrogance and pride, your fake adulthood, take the position of a small child in relation to them. Next to them, you will always be younger. You will always be small for them. And if you want harmony, then take your place and stop butting with them. nine0006
Yes, they are imperfect, you don't have to share their ideals either, you don't have to obey in everything either. But respect is worth learning. Being small next to them means accepting their care in the form in which they give it to you. Transform inside yourself their “put on a hat” and “eat another piece” into “I love you”. Because that is exactly what it means. They have no purpose to prove to you that you are nobody, that you are still too small.
They want to express their love in any way they can.
It's not easy for them anyway. They see their mistakes, even if they don't admit them. And they love you the best they can. And they cannot take the first step towards you, because in this case they will hit the wall. Until you yourself open up to meet them and come to them, they can only wait. And they've been waiting for years. nine0003
What else is left for them! Yes, they do not know how to love the way you would like. Yes, they are not ideal parents and have not done everything for you that they could (as you think). Yes, they could do something with themselves and start behaving the way you want. It's just all of this that separates you from each other.
One day we will have nowhere to go with our difficulties and sorrows. There will not be left in the world those people who love us all our lives and wish us well. Which, be that as it may, have always been by our side. Is it worth wasting time? nine0003
When our children grow up, we will also be in this place.
The place of those who can only wait for the child to come to him again. If he wants to come. If it comes.
We teach children by our example in everything. And they learn to respect their elders by looking at us. The way we communicate with our parents. How much we ourselves respect them. They will treat us the same way. No script, just learning through images.
Mistakes and crises are inevitable
Look at your child. Do you want torment and injury for him? Do you want to cause him pain and inconvenience? Do you want to ruin his whole life? None of the parents want this. nine0012
Nobody taught us how to be parents. Nobody taught our parents either. Therefore, we raise children as best we can, as far as our internal resources and forces are enough. As far as our heart allows right now.
And in any case, we will make a mistake, we will stumble, we will fall. In any case, there will be situations that will offend our children.
There is no way we can avoid it. Nor could our parents, who just as much wanted the best for us. And perhaps they used the wrong methods and the wrong words for this. In any case, we will do something wrong. Each child will have something to go to a psychologist later. Even with the fact that the mother is too perfect and infallible, like an ideal that cannot be reached. nine0003
So relax and exhale. Start by rebuilding relationships with your parents. In your heart. First, it is worth curing everything that is inside of you. Sometimes this will require you to be at a distance from each other for some time. To strengthen your love and acceptance. Sometimes even after that, your external relations will not change. And it will seem that there are no changes, mom still grumbles and merges negative emotions into you, criticizes you and laughs at you, dad is just as indifferent. But don't be fooled. If love and acceptance have really grown in your heart, it will stop hurting you.
And even such features will not affect your inner respect for your parents and gratitude. nine0003
And when there is such an attitude in the real heart, then external relations also gradually change. Not as fast as you want, and not necessarily in the direction that you like now. The love that is in your heart can be without waiting for certain actions and deeds. But for this, it must be able to grow and get stronger.
Our children, coming to us, help us find our pain points, our hidden wounds. What has been tormenting us for years can be healed. Not as fast as you want, not as easy. But on the other hand, it is reliable and of high quality. Are you ready to go where it hurts, on the trail your little child has set? To your own distant childhood? Are you ready to go there and be healed? If yes, then do not put off until tomorrow what you can start now. nine0003
Children lead us to ourselves
It is impossible to build relationships with people when you do not know who you are and do not understand yourself.
It is also impossible to build a relationship with yourself until you have a pause and silence, until there is a lot of unnecessary noise and important things in your life. Having a baby gives us a chance to take that pause and hear ourselves. If we use it, of course. Otherwise, you can give birth and continue your run, it is not clear where and why.
Being finally at home, having enough free time (and no matter what they say, mom has a lot of time on maternity leave to think, reflect and listen), we can discover so much new and unknown in ourselves! nine0003
Many mothers find their work during maternity leave. It comes by itself, through creativity, a hobby, like an outlet. And reveals new facets of a woman's personality. It was as if it was sitting somewhere inside, waiting to be noticed and heard. But after all, being a photographer or an artist is so strange, much more understandable and more prestigious than being a lawyer or an accountant. A child helps us stop running from ourselves.
And maybe that’s why it’s so difficult for many on maternity leave - after all, you can’t physically run away, and you somehow have to meet with yourself. And these meetings are not always pleasant and joyful. nine0003
Although what could be more joyful and interesting than getting to know and getting to know a loved one in depth? Or do you have someone closer than yourself? How much do we know about ourselves, how much do we understand, or do we live by stereotypes? A lot of women ask me a question about finding their calling. And it sounds deeper to me. It's not just "what should I work with", it's actually a question of "who am I anyway?", "what am I really?".
Here, just like with parents, we have to go through pain, go into depth when it's very scary. Not much I can find there. Go, not stand and wait for everything to come by itself. Try, make mistakes, seek, listen to your heart. Difficult path. But the birth of a child opens this door for us too. nine0003
Children lead us to God
I know of a story that once struck me, that was before I seriously thought about God myself.
One newborn girl screamed for days. Nothing could calm her down for a year. Mom was exhausted, exhausted. And she had other children, too. And one day, absolutely by chance, together with her one-year-old daughter, who even screamed incessantly in the street, she went into a Baptist church. I don't know why that is. By chance. According to my mother, they were in the Orthodox Church many times. And then they came in by accident. And a miracle happened. The girl was silent. And she was silent for several hours. nine0003
At first my mother thought it was a coincidence. But then I realized that her only chance to be in peace and quiet is to go with her daughter to the temple for the whole day. So the whole family became Baptists (and before that they were believers only formally). The girl is really interesting. She sings in a choir, goes to Sunday school, is very vulnerable and shy.
Children now come unusual. And many of them somehow lead parents to faith. If it were not for the peculiarities of our eldest son, for us this issue would not have arisen so urgently already at a young age.
Probably postponed until later. nine0003
Many people come to faith because there is no other way to cope with experiences. There are so many dangers in this world, temptations that you don't know what to do with. And all that remains is to pray. And yes, this is the best way to live through any crisis.
Yes, the path to God is also not the easiest and most pleasant. You have to learn a lot about yourself again. And about his pride, and about his greed and envy, and much more about anything. And again we have to go to the pain. And again our children show us this way. You add how much they give us with their appearance! How much they aggravate everything, and how difficult it is to endure in all this and find your way and yourself! nine0003
Children are an amazing gift from God. Awesome for many reasons. Because this is a continuous training for personal and spiritual growth, an opportunity to heal your old wounds and find your own path in this life, to find God, the meaning of life.
Yes, it's not easy. Especially for the first time, when all this travel is new. Especially if by the time it began, we had already gone very far from ourselves, and from God, and from our parents. But it's worth it. Believe me.
With each child, you will go through this path again and again, each time easier and deeper. You will become a completely different person if you allow all this to happen to you. Difficult transformation of the mother. But how many treasures you will find inside!published by econet.ru

Why do children come into this world? — Raising children
Well done! That's what it means, people think about their child. He's only a year old, and they already have questions. I can only say again Sh’koyah (“keep it up”)! And I will try to answer your question.
I would like to start with an unexpected topic. The question is about raising a child, and I would like to start with topic Schlom byte ("family world") in your family. I have been working on this topic for many years and I saw a strange pattern. Sometimes parents come and talk about problems related to the child's behavior. And when we take them apart, a strange picture often emerges. The child does not behave the way the parents need, he forces them to seek professional help by his behavior. As if saying to your parents: “If you don’t start loving each other, behave with respect for each other, I will arrange this for you! No experts will help! Please love one another. I want to grow up in the warm environment of a happy home. Give me such a gift, am I not worthy of it? It's not enough for me that you love me. I need to see that you're doing well." nine0003
The best gift we can give our children is to build our relationships, improve them, and remove the notes of dissatisfaction and criticism from them.
Yes, just be happy! What could be better for our children than to grow up in the shadow of the happiness and love of their parents. This is the wealth that they can get in childhood and live "on it" all their lives. And build happy families.
If we can give them such a gift, then we ourselves will win. A colossal "prize" for the whole family. nine0003
Then, if your child needs help, you will be ready to help him, and not waste time on bickering and mutual accusations. Together you will go through all the tests, grow up happy people.
But the question was about education, books on education.
1. Lectures on the education of Rav Ichiel Yakobson. Lectures in Hebrew, at a high spiritual and professional level.
2. Miriam Levy. Effective Jewish education.
3. Chana Sarah Redcliffe (Love and Power in Jewish Education)
There is one general rule that must not be forgotten. Children come into our world to help their parents become better, stronger, grow up with them.
