Kidobi Review: Making Screen Time Count

We were caught in the middle of some nasty storms in Ohio today and I hope everyone involved stayed safe and sound! The rain gave me an opportunity to provide a new entertainment source to my kiddos! After reading about Kidobi and the wonderful videos and games and they have on their website, I had to check it out!

WHAT IS KIDOBI?

Kidobi is an online video content provider for children ages 2 – 6 that removes parents’ guesswork by automatically generating customized video playlists, completely personalized to fit children’s learning needs and developmental stage. Since all the videos are pre-screened by educators and child development experts, parents are reassured of the age-appropriate, educational value.

The selections are not only educational, they are generated uniquely for YOUR CHILD! They are chosen using age appropriate videos and key words that you enter (for example, I used “Princess” and “Fairy”). A princess video popped right up and my daughter was hooked! My son is 6, and said he was not interested… but he is really enjoying it & hasn’t stopped watching with her, and they have enjoyed this rainy day inside watching Kidobi!

After watching a few videos, we searched around for other educational clips and found some about nature, animals and safety at home! Wow! I am so impressed with this site, I want to tell every mother I know to check it out! It is hard to escape TV time, but on a day like today when they have played every board game we have in stock, I certainly do not mind a little education… okay it is VERY EDUCATIONAL, but hey, they do not need to know just how much they are learning! Their little spongy brains were taking in every detail, and I… love… it!
