The Kids Should See This

Letting kids roam video platforms can be a minefield, but pre-screening everything yourself is exhausting. The Kids Should See This is a curated site that gathers smart, kid-appropriate videos on science, art, tech, and culture—no unboxing, no toy ads, just fascinating clips. Created by a parent who wanted better screen options, it pulls from YouTube and beyond but filters for quality and curiosity. Families love that one quick visit can turn into a meaningful mini-lesson without falling into algorithm rabbit holes. It’s ideal for elementary through middle school learners and works beautifully as a “one video before breakfast” ritual. Because it links out to external hosts, occasional broken links happen, but scrolling a bit usually reveals something else worthwhile. Pro tip: bookmark a handful of favorites in advance and keep a simple notebook for kids to jot “one thing I learned” after each viewing.
