Safe Youtubers That Are Kid Friendly to Watch

10 Safe YouTubers That Are Young Kid Friendly

Nearly every little kid longs to be a big kid and do Big Kid Things. And high on the list of Big Kid Things that younger children are wistfully watching the big kids do is watch videos on YouTube.

YouTube videos also are a fabulous way to help a young child to manage an unexpected wait, stay occupied on a long car ride, or to remain quiet while convalescing from any of those frequent minor illnesses only cured by time and rest.

It’s no wonder that parents of the young ones crave YouTube channels that are reliably kid-friendly and can be trusted to dish up tons of appropriate content with no objectionable aspects.

Here’s a list of some of the best YouTube celebrities and channels that families will find essential to grab for the approved list for young children. Of course, any channel can change abruptly, so even if a celeb or a channel made this list, parents will still need to do the occasional spot check and make sure it’s still on the up-and-up and meets your personal standards for your kids’ screen time diet.

The Wiggles

The Wiggles are a group of four sharp and snappy young adults who perform children’s songs. They are from Australia and for the past 26 years have been styling themselves as the Fab Four of Fun.

Most of the videos on this jam-packed site are musical in nature, and just as bright and bubbly as the hosts and hostesses in the group. Many videos are short and sweet – from 1 to 3 minutes – but there are some collections with a bit more length as they run through multiple songs in a set. Each of the group members also has a subchannel that features their “favorites” and is worth exploring.
