Earlier I had a hard time in research and applying parental control software in order to filter unsuitable shows, cartoons, movies, games from my kids’ viewing. The task was not easy for me with kids’ having access to diverse types of devices and consoles from computer to gaming consoles. But then with the technical resources and tips from Common Sense Media, I gradually started learning what and how to filter content and apply parental control tools to bar objectionable content from kids’ access. And now with the launch of Netflix Just For Kids app, filtering content has become effortless. Earlier it was limited to Nintendo Wii, and now it is on Sony PS3.
More Fun, Filter and Family Shows on Netflix
Family, fun and filters are blended in this app to curate this kid focused content platform on Netflix. Sony PS3 is the second gaming console after Netflix Just For Kids app debuted on Nintendo Wii. The app will soon be launched on Microsoft XBOX 360 console after these two. The Just For Kids app was first debuted to the website of Netflix back in August 2011 and then, it also had a penetration in Apple TV set top box, along with Nintendo Wii. Since launch, the app has been a top favorite among kids and parents that it went on recording a whopping number of over one billion hours of kid focused content streaming. In addition to Microsoft XBOX 360, Netflix has revealed plans for penetration on content market for tablet.
So, what the fun with Netflix Just For Kids app?  Â
The app opens with a vast independent Netflix screen containing wide array of movie content and TV shows appropriate for kids. This includes my kids’ favorite titles of TV shows and movies like Arthur, Bob the Builder, Power Rangers, Thomas the Tank Engine, Curious George etc, too.
What I especially liked about this app is the automated process of choosing content of Netflix Just For Kids app. I was already following Common Sense Media to keep a tab on focusing and filtering content. Likewise, the app also streamlines its choice of content to show on the Just For Kids Service on the basis of the ratings of this non-profit website, Common Sense Media. Such a great peace of mind, I must admit and relief for parents. Sigh!
