Kidzui is not just a child-oriented web browser which blocks adult oriented sites (as most child-oriented browsers are stereotyped to only feature), but is more of a child-oriented web browser and network portal suite, with enhanced features and highlights made to enrich the online experience of parents and kids.

Developed for kids between 3 to 17 years old, KidZui comes with a “child-oriented search engine”, where instances of double meaning word searches won’t yield inappropriate search results.

Take for example “Woody” as in Woody of Toy Story, or “hidden jugs” as in the hidden jugs in a Dora game. Those keywords could actually come up with results which are entirely far from the intended search queries a child would initiate, and KidZui does well in making sure that searches of the like are tuned to the right undertones.

Also showcasing a “social network” feature within the KidZui network, the browser allows for healthy interactions between different KidZui users, from tagging to the sharing of opinions. Users could even create custom avatars, to the tune of what most social networks have to offer users.

It also features wholesome videos and games, which adds to its featured fun factor for both parents and children.

The suite is designed work well with non-techie parents, given that it works with a regularly updated “whitelist” of child-safe websites, internet zones and internet arenas. This “whitelist” is continuosly monitored and updated by online watchguards, parents, educators and developers, a relevant highlight given how frequent potential online dangers pop up every now and then.

As a web browser KidZui doesn’t openly access the net, mainly referring to its “whitelist” as an added security method for kids when they go online.

A limited free version of KidZui is available for download via the KidZui website, and further details, should parents decide on purchasing the full KidZui suite, on price and purchase method options can be found there as well.

If you happen to be on the lookout for a child-safe web browser which does more than just block adult-oriented sites, KidZui may just be what you’ve been looking for. (THE FREEMAN)
