Microsoft Edge Kids Mode has been introduced as a child-friendly web browser that gives parents more control when it comes to browsing the Internet.
Using Kids Mode, parents can customize the browser experience for their little ones, preventing their child from stumbling across content that might not be age-appropriate. The introduction of Kids Mode is especially helpful at this time, as many parents need to leave their children in front of the computer screen while they work so that they can attend classes remotely.
With Kids Mode, families can share one PC, allowing parents and teens to browse content regularly, and then quickly swap the settings before kids get started. The child-friendly web browser can be activated through the account profile settings in the upper right corner of Edge—where a "Browse in Kids Mode" option can be selected.
