How to Use Whats My Kid Watching to Create a Healthy Viewing Routine

Introduction

Building a healthy viewing routine is more than setting limits; it is about choosing the right content and tracking progress.

Start by defining a daily schedule that includes learning, play and rest. Allocate specific time slots for YouTube that fit into this schedule.

Search for a channel or topic and read the short summary. The age guidance tells you if the content is suitable for your child’s age group.

After watching a video, leave a rating. This helps you remember which videos you liked or disliked and informs other parents.

Time Limits: Use the app’s timer or a separate timer to enforce the schedule.
Content Limits: Stick to a list of approved videos.
Breaks: Encourage short breaks between sessions.

Use a simple chart or a calendar to mark each viewing session. Review the chart weekly to see if the routine is working.

With the tools from Whats My Kid Watching, you can turn screen time into a purposeful and balanced part of your child’s day.
