Sharing is caring!

As a parent, you are likely concerned about your child’s safety in all aspects and areas of life. This should include online safety too, right? If you aren’t already taking measures to keep your child safe online, I am so excited to share about this! When it comes to teaching internet safety in general, this is something that I want my youngest (more tech savvy) child to be aware of. But, this extends to her sister as well. They are both relatively independent users of YouTube and I wanted to be able to use an app that would cross multiple platforms. 

I was compensated for my time reviewing this product/service, writing this review, and hosting the giveaway.

What is Safe Vision?

Safe Vision is an app that helps parents filter what their children can watch on YouTube. Your children can enjoy YouTube on your terms. 

This was something that we had struggled greatly with when it came to our daughter as she is, as I mentioned, quite tech savvy. Sometimes I’m convinced that she knows far more than I do when it comes to all of this technology stuff.

However, even she seemed pretty impressed with SafeVision.

Our solution prior to this was just removing the YouTube app from the iPad all together.

Now though? She can access YouTube again and I don’t have to worry.

After selecting her age range, we were on our way. And I have to tell you, from this point on? My daughter was the one who took over most of the control settings. It really is that easy to set up.

Why We Trust Safe Vision

In today’s highly technological era, the internet has become a wonderful tool for research and recreation. The use of the internet is to some degree beneficial for the growth of your children. We use YouTube, or used to use YouTube, regularly in our homeschooling to supplement a lesson. 

With these changes now in place, I felt more comfortable with letting her use the Safe Vision app to access YouTube videos. I often wonder about the quality of some of the so-called children’s videos on YouTube. And, more often than not, I’ve found myself either confiscating the iPad or blocking the app all together.

I had wanted to find a more peaceful solution that would work for all of us.

Now with Safe Vision app, we have that for both of my daughters. And if we wanted to use this on another device, such as the Kindle Fire or an Android tablet? We can access the Safe Vision app there as well.

Because we are using this app on more than one device, we went with Safe Vision premium.

Safe Vision Premium is an optional paid subscription that allows you to:

  • Unlock an unlimited number of YouTube channels
  • Set daily time limit to more than 1 hour
  • Have up to 7 child profiles on unlimited devices

Starting a Family Piggy Bank

Starting a Family Piggy Bank

As a child, I remember having several piggy banks, but none was an actual pig. My mom also collected piggy banks, so I suppose my mild obsession with piggy banks may have come from her. As a family, we had one collective piggy bank and I’ve thought of starting a family piggy bank with Squeaker. All too often, when kids become adults, they forget about those savings lessons learned in their younger years. They spend every last cent out of each paycheck, and they end up without anything left over. Wouldn’t it be great if we could save up some money to have fun with as easily as we did in our youth? Actually, there’s no reason why we can’t. A family piggy bank works…

In our Raising Money Savvy Kids series, we talked a little bit about how to teach kids to save money. This is a good skill to have and certainly one that I could use a little help with too. Not that I don’t save money, I do. Just that I could be doing better with it or putting it towards something practical like a retirement fund. I also want to set up a special needs trust fund for Sweet B. But how can we teach kids to save money? Money may be given as a gift for a birthday, holiday, or other special occasion. Maybe your child receives an allowance or they could be old enough to have their first job. For older kids, you…

3 Ways to Teach Patience to Kids

I had started a how-to series, of sorts, about raising kids. But I was never sure as to what I should or could include. Different parenting styles work for different parents, after all. While we may incorporate some aspects of positive or compassionate parenting, that might not work for someone else. Still, I wanted to continue with this series, and talk about how to teach patience to kids. Why? Because it’s important when it comes to raising kids with character. And goes along well with my existing advice and tips for modern day parents. Kids are not the most understanding of beings. They don’t have the capacity in most cases. One virtue that will do them well in life is patience, and here is how…
