CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This free Web browser limits the sites your kids can access, but its small feature set and lack of flexibility don't exactly earn big points. Kids Playground Web Browser's commonplace interface, with its standard navigational buttons, is easy enough to operate. Additionally, it houses several Flash- and Java-based games your kids might enjoy. Kids Playground Web Browser offers a preloaded list of child-friendly Web sites and you can add your own in the Adult Area. This section is password-protected by a default password, but there's no option to change it. No other parental controls, such as the ability to control PC and Internet usage, are included. Kids Playground Web Browser doesn't have an address bar, so when kids are using it, they can only go to approved sites. However, it's easy enough to bypass the program's browser window and access a different, unrestricted browser app. It can be used free of charge, but parents won't be able to rely on this simplistic browser program to control their kids' Internet usage.Publisher's description

Version: Kids Playground Web Browser 10.2
Pros: Uninstalls without mess.
Cons: It is called an Web Browser, however it doesn't browse the Web at all! It only goes to certain Kids sites which is extremely limited. If you are looking for something to protect your kids, this isn't a good software at all! The Parent Controls is useless, it demands for a password without you even setting out first. And all Flash Games freeze when loading. I do not recommend this at all!

Version: Kids Playground Web Browser 10.2
Cons: 1. It gives you a long, master password that you are unable to change
2. This is not a parental control
3. This is not even a web browser
4. All it is is under master controls you can change the sites you are allowed to visit.
5. Extemely sucky!

Version: Kids Playground Web Browser 10.2
Pros: Great for your kids.
Quite safe!
I wouldn't want my kids to have a full on browser, so this is ideal!
Cons: Better that the rest...
