Parental Controls
ToyLearn was designed for kids to use directly, but a tablet handed over without ground rules can still wander into screen-time creep. Here is what you can do as a parent — both with our site and with your device.
On ToyLearn
- No autoplay — videos stop at the end. Your child has to tap to continue.
- Embedded YouTube uses the
youtube-nocookiedomain so YouTube does not build a profile on your child. - Curated catalog — every video is reviewed by us, not just an algorithm. Channels like Super Simple Songs, CoComelon, Blippi, and Pinkfong make up most of the library.
- No accounts — there is nothing to sign up for, so there is no password your child could share.
On the device
We strongly recommend using your device's built-in screen-time tools. They are stricter than anything we can enforce from a web page:
- iOS / iPadOS: Settings → Screen Time → App Limits — set a daily cap for Safari/Chrome.
- Android: Settings → Digital Wellbeing → App timers, or use Family Link for full account-level controls.
- Browser-level: Chrome, Edge, and Firefox all have a "Kids" or "Supervised" profile option.
A word on ads
ToyLearn is free to use because it carries display ads (provided by Google AdSense). We do not target ads to your child — Google's policies for child-directed sites are followed. If you would prefer an ad-free experience, the cleanest option is a network-wide blocker like Pi-hole or NextDNS, set up once at your router.
Reporting concerns
If you find a video that does not match our policy, email us at [email protected] with the URL. We aim to respond within one business day.
