<strong>Microsoft has introduced a new Kids Mode for its Edge browser that will make it easy for parents to customize a better and safer web experience for their kids.</strong></p>
<p>
The Kids Mode allows parents to customise the browsing experience of their kids depending on the child&#39;s age. Currently, parents can choose the appropriate experience for their kid&#39;s ages from 5-8 and 9-12.<br />
<br />
&quot;With many of our kids spending so much more time online and many parents and families sharing devices, we have been working on a solution and are excited to announce the general availability of Microsoft Edge Kids Mode!&quot; the company said in a blogpost on Thursday.<br />
<br />
&quot;Kids Mode gives parents peace of mind by providing a protected online environment as their kids browse the web on a shared device,&quot; the company added.<br />
<br />
Regardless of the age group, Kids Mode limits the sites that kids will have access to — from the get-go there are about 70 popular kid sites that are allowed, but users can fully customise the list in a couple of clicks in Microsoft Edge settings.<br />
<br />
&quot;If your kid tries to navigate to a site outside of that allowed list, they will be greeted with a friendly block page, encouraging them to either ask for permission or try navigating elsewhere,&quot; the company said.<br />
<br />
Unique to the older age range (9-12) is an age-appropriate news feed on the New Tab Page with specially curated articles from MSN for Kids. These article topics range from animals to science, to fun facts — bringing fun and entertainment to their fingertips.<br />
<br />
When it&#39;s time to exit Kids Mode, an authentication from a parent will be required just to be sure if the child isn&#39;t accidentally trying to navigate somewhere the parent doesn&#39;t want them to.<br />
<br />
&quot;We believe this is a game-changer for parents who are juggling all the demands of life today,&quot; the company said.</p>
