I know and approve of all of the content she has access to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2403916 Wed, 30 Dec 2015 03:45:26 +0000 regberadaisy 2403916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, because it's YouTube I just don't trust it. @Purpledaisy: I have the PBS Kids App and Netflix on the iPad that she does watch. I have an account for her on Netflix that's for little kids. So the worst she can play is some Barbie dream house or Calliou. ;)</p> <p>@Mrs. Pen: We're not a Nick Jr Household but looks like you can get paw patrol episodes via the Nick Jr app and on their website. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2403890 Wed, 30 Dec 2015 01:47:01 +0000 fussygal 2403890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ah, scary! I was actually going to download YouTube Kids today. I do occasionally use the NickJr. app (for Bubble Guppies), Netflix, and PBS Kids so I can get a shower though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2403849 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 23:47:06 +0000 HLK208 2403849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jmarionsmith: so true!! I use to have to watch closely with DS on YouTube (regular/not kids) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2403839 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 23:35:51 +0000 jmarionsmith 2403839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3 yo is obsessed! I've read about inappropriate stuff being on there but from what I've seen, so far, it's nothing compared to the crap he was able to find on just regular YouTube. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2403809 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 22:52:31 +0000 HLK208 2403809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Purpledaisy: I downloaded Netflix, with the kids option where they can't watch anything that's not rated G. </p> <p>@JoJoGirl: DS said he saw something about knives awhile ago but I don't know if it was the video that the article was referencing 😁 Scary. I downloaded YouTube kids because it specially said a "safe app just for kids" :bummed: I knew there would probably be some videos I didn't care for but I didn't realize there's actually BAD content! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2402719 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 07:55:16 +0000 JoJoGirl 2402719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG really? yes she will watch either YouTube Kids or PBS Kids for 15 mins every day while my DH showers. On vacations and whatnot I've watched with her and never seen anything weird. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2402665 Tue, 29 Dec 2015 02:48:48 +0000 Purpledaisy 2402665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow. DD watches YouTube kids all the time and I've never seen anything weird. I'm going to make sure to keep a close eye on what she's watching. </p> <p>Anyone have any suggestions on other tv/video apps for tablets instead of YouTube kids? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2402455 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:25:46 +0000 Andrea 2402455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I don't trust YouTube either. I will let them watch something on there only if I am with them. I DVR a few shows so I can always put something on that they want to watch if I need shower time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2402449 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:22:52 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2402449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my son does - and I've definitely seen some disturbing shows on there! Thankfully nothing to the extent you described, but I've definitely had to monitor his usage even though it's a "kids" app.<br /> I can't really delete it, because it's the only way he can watch paw patrol and that's his favorite show :-/ He also watches lots of garbage truck videos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-watch-youtube-kids#post-2402429 Mon, 28 Dec 2015 20:04:46 +0000 HLK208 2402429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 6 y/o and 3 y/o did for a little awhile. They LOVED watching playdough videos. There was an article came out recently that there are some extremely disturbing videos on YouTube Kids like how to taste battery acid, or juggle knives and videos with jokes about pedophilia/drug abuse. I can't always monitor what my oldest watches, so I deleted the app on the kids iPads.<br /> I really hope they didn't watch anything horrible 😁 sometimes the only way I can take a shower is if they get 30 minutes of iPad time! </p>
