Google Kids Space

A tablet experience for kids

Google Kids Space is a tablet experience with a custom home screen and library of quality content for children under 9. Kids have the ability to customize their experience with unique avatars and receive content recommendations based on their interests, while parents can set boundaries with parental controls.

Google Kids Space requires a Google Account for your child and a compatible Android device.

Teacher-approved apps and games

Google Kids Space comes with apps and games from Google Play that have been approved by teachers and children’s education and media specialists. Teacher Approved apps are age-appropriate, thoughtfully designed, and fun or inspiring.

For parents who want flexibility beyond Google Kids Space recommendations, you can add even more content from the Google Play store through the parents’ menu.

Books handpicked by children's book experts

A catalog from Play Books has been expertly curated to inspire a love of reading. With delightful titles and characters you’ll recognize, there are classic books and brand new stories covering topics from trucks to ballet. Children can find new interests or revisit some of their favorite stories again and again.

Recommended videos with enriching content

Kids can get inspired to create, discover, and practice their skills with videos from YouTube Kids that spark hands-on creativity and play. They’ll find videos about everything from simple drawing activities to silly science projects. Whether they want to learn, sing, or laugh, kids can explore videos about the topics and characters they love.

Designed with kids’ curiosity in mind

Whether it’s animals or art projects, kids become little experts on the things they love. Google Kids Space is designed to help them explore their latest fascinations and learn even more, in new and engaging ways. Kids can even customize their experience by creating their own character, who they’ll see on screen when they log in.

Set boundaries with parental controls

With parental controls in the Family Link app from Google, you can guide your child’s experience by managing content from Google Play, setting screen time limits, and more, all from your own device.
