Website review: Fun time

Published December 22, 2018

The chill in the air has also brought with it the winter holidays. Though the period is short, you can still enjoy it to the fullest by visiting your friends’ home, playing outdoor games, going for a movie with family or exploring an age appropriate entertainment website like www.kidzvuz.com.

This is a video watching and sharing website focused on children of ages 8 to 14. Here, you can have a fun way to sound off about movies, TV shows, games and more.

The site is clean and clutter-free, with no ads at all. You will see the main menu at the top centre of the homepage with four main categories, such as “Entertainment” with videos of reviews, views and interviews of actors, movies, books, etc. The other categories are all self-explanatory such as “Toys and Tech”, “Fashion and Fun” and “Food and Travel”. Clicking them will open a separate page with the related content from where you can further dig in.

This straightforward site is basically a learning and sharing experience where kids are the content generators and the visitors. It is an incredible experience where you can share and get to know which games are best, what shows to watch, where to travel, what books to read, even what food to eat, all by kids of your age.

However, only registered users can upload videos and make comment on other kids’ videos.

To get registered, you need to ask your parents to provide an email address to activate your account. The good thing is, every video or comment is approved by the site moderator before it appears on the site.

The website has empowered kids as everything on the site is created and commented by kids themselves. From entertainment videos to travel guides, everything is fun and engaging at: https://www.kidzvuz.com
