Ratings and reviews

I love this app as an ad-free option for allowing interactive, game-like screen time. The content is thoughtfully curated and usually involves building levels of skill in each area. There is alot of repetition, which I appreciate and my child doesn't seem to mind. I like that the visuals are relaxing and the pacing is slower than other generic children's content, even for exciting themes. A few of the instructions aren't 100% clear, but not a big deal. Access to the full library is a big hit!

We’ve only been using Khan Academy Kids for a short time, but I’m really impressed. I wanted educational screen time that felt worthwhile for my toddler. The app is completely free, has no ads, and includes a great mix of videos and interactive learning. Some repetition, but that works well for kids. Minimal glitches so far. It’s a great complement to preschool for early reading, math, and foundational skills.

I downloaded this for my 2 and 4 year olds. They love it! There is so much variety and I never have to buy a new pack of something or tell my kids they can only play on certain unlocked parts because it's all free! My kids love being able to switch between listening to books, watching videos, and playing games. I love that it's all educational, can be tailored to each child's age/level, and that you can link the account to different devices by via login and they can be at the same spot on all devices! Great app!
