I’ve learned that parents and children alike can now enjoy music and storytelling from the iHeartRadio Family app via Samsung Kids. Samsung Kids is a fun, educational subscription-based service. The new app gives Samsung Kids subscribers access to iHeartRadio’s kid-friendly stations including iHeartRadio Top 40 Countdown, Radio Disney Junior, the Alli Simpson Show, Kids Club Radio, Sing Alongs Radio, and Lullabies Radio. In addition, both the Samsung Kids and iHeartRadio Family apps feature simple to navigate user interfaces designed with the child in mind.
The iHeartRadio Family app joins a library of curated, engaging educational games and books mapped to U.S. Common Core standards with an emphasis on STEM education on Samsung Kids. To give parents peace of mind, Samsung Kids offers parental controls, which help parents limit screen time and keep tabs on what content their child is enjoying.
We received a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite loaded with the kid’s program Samsung Kids. The opinions expressed about the device and the Samsung Kids program are 100% our own.
We’ve had the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite for just over a month and the kids love it. As a parent who wants to be able to control how much and what my kids see during their screen time the parental controls of Samsung Kids is such a great option. The device has a special soft durable bumper case that is excellent for kids’ hands. That bumper case also provides a non-slip grip for the kids as they enjoy their games and books.
The Apps that are part of Samsung Kids are plentiful. There are so many games and books available to the kids. They are based on the kids’ ages, too. So Eva can enjoy those for her while Andrew can play younger ones. With them both accessing the same tablet it is nice for each of the kids to have their own space. The kids can both sign in to their own account and as a parent I can assign time limits for each of the children not only for the games but also a separate time limit for books. Maybe I want them to focus less on games this week so I set them up to have longer book time. That gives me greater flexibility on what I can allow them to use. If they do well in school or finish chores then they can be rewarded with extra game time. If they need to focus more on learning then I can give them more book time.
