YouTube for Parents
YouTube for parents can be blessing and a curse. Channels like PBSParentsPicks and ParentsMagazine are full of craft and party ideas as well as answers to general health and development questions. Finding appropriate content for our children can be more of a challenge.
YouTubeforChildren.com is a filter site where a topic is entered into the seach box and child friendly videos are returned.
Using Safety Mode on YouTube itself is another tool for parents to use to filter the content available to their children while on the site.
-
Scroll to the bottom of any YouTube page and click the drop-down menu in the "Safety" section.
-
Select the On or Off option to enable or disable this feature.
Enabling Safety Mode on YouTube will also enable Google SafeSearch, which is a similar filter for Google Search.
While it's not 100 percent accurate, YouTube uses community flagging, age-restrictions, and other signals to identify and filter out inappropriate content.
