My husband and I feel like we are constantly trying to navigate the scary world that is content. From music to shows to video games we are facing a battle to keep our kids young and pure. What they consume via tv and video game platforms, we feel, shapes their little hearts and minds.
Here are some of our favorites from each platform we use! And please note our kids at this time are 5, 3, and under 1.
I will note we are a Christian home, so we limit things that we feel are not appropriate for our young kids. That said each home is different from what they believe is good for their children to consume. So, use your own judgment and discernment!
YouTube
I will note that we have YouTube Premium so that we do not have any ads. It is $13.99 at this time but personally there are so many shows and things that we watch on here it has been worth it.
I also put these videos in different playlists! That way if they want to watch something they just go to the playlist I created for whatever show. This makes sure they do not go scrolling around which we do not want.
