Kiddle.co is a web search engine and online encyclopaedia emphasising safety for children. It is powered by Google custom search and employs safe search, with minor refinements, however, it is not affiliated with Google LLC.

All you have to do is open Kiddle instead of any other search engine and search whatever you need to search. Kiddle search engine will satisfy your elders’ requirements, with its filtered sites and with no explicit or deceptive content.

When you write anything that you are searching for in the ‘Search bar’, you will get all kids-oriented results. According to the creators, the search results will bring back sites that are safe and trusted; sites which are not specifically written for kids but have content written in a simple, easy way for kids to understand. There will also be results of the sites that are famous and written for adults with expert content, yet filtered and still safe in their content as they are handpicked and checked by Kiddle editors.

Apart from that, you will find most Kiddle search results illustrated with big thumbnails having large Arial font, this makes it easier to scan the results, differentiate between them and click the most appropriate results to your query. Thumbnails serve as visual clues and are especially beneficial for you because, as kids, you may not read as fast as adults do.
