Microsoft has announced the general availability of Microsoft Edge Kids Mode! to gives parents peace of mind by providing a protected online environment as their kids browse the web on a shared device.

Kids Mode was created not only to give parents peace of mind instantly and easily, but also to create a world that is very much designed for kids.

How to launch Kids Mode in Microsoft Edge

Click on your account profile in the upper right corner of Edge browser and select “Browse in Kids Mode.” From here, you’ll be asked to choose the appropriate age range for your child, either 5-8 or 9-12. And that’s it! Just like that, you’ll quickly “leave” Microsoft Edge and enter the beautiful world of Kids Mode.



Kids Mode limits the sites that kids will have access to -- from the get-go there are about 70 popular kid sites that are allowed, but you can fully customize the list in a couple of clicks in Microsoft Edge settings. If your kid tries to navigate to a site outside of that allowed list, they’ll be greeted with a friendly block page, encouraging them to either ask for permission or try navigating elsewhere.

Besides, kids can personalize their browsing experience with several fun new browser themes that unlock wonder and discovery. We also collaborated with Disney to create custom Microsoft Edge themes from several animated movies like Disney’s “Frozen,” “The Little Mermaid,” and Disney and Pixar’s “Finding Nemo,” “Cars,” “Toy Story” and “Coco.” You’ll see additional Disney and Pixar Microsoft Edge browser themes added to our theme picker in the coming months.
