There is no shortage of apps which are meant to amuse and educate young kids, however, finding something better than just letting your kids watch YouTube for hours or buy some in-app purchases is a little hard to find. In this video, I will show you some of the best apps that you can use to educate your kids.

1. YouTube Kids

This age-restricted version of YouTube is made to entertain and educate your kid. Start by creating a YouTube kids account for yourself (the parent) and then you are told to create a user for your child. Once you are done, let your kid explore the content by scrolling through various child-friendly genres like music shows and learning. YouTube Kids also enables you to voice search and find a specific video which falls under the child-friendly category. The best part about this app is its security feature like disabling search by which you can manually control the content consumption for your kid by disabling search and only letting them watch the content specifically curated content and adding a timer by which the app automatically locks after a certain period of watch-time is reached. Do check it out for its wide range of free content and security features.

2. PBS Kids Video
