tinyTube enables parents to control what content young children are watching on YouTube. Toddlers can still have access to the videos and interactive music they love, without the dreaded list of "related videos" that are accessible via other interfaces. tinyTube blends good parenting with YouTube.

Ever had to race over to stop a video when you realise Thomas the Tank Engine is about to get blown up in a home-made video? Or stopping a Mickey Mouse video that has been put to rap music with offensive language?

tinyTube makes toddlers interacting with YouTube stress-free for parents, and makes good parenting easier to achieve!

It's also a great way for children with special needs to experience the enjoyment of watching videos shared on YouTube. Interaction can be defined by parents - making it easier for children with special needs to find and play their favorite videos.
