Indian media giant, Viacom18, on Wednesday launched Voot Kids as the country’s first multi-format kids app that offers education and entertainment within the same platform. Certified by Early Childhood Association (ECA), the subscription-based app is available on both Android and iOS and, offers 20,000 videos, e-books, stories and quizzes that the company says have been tailor-made for children aged 2 to 8 years.
Being a children’s app, Voot Kids will offer parental controls to enable parents and guardians to not only monitor and specify the type of content their children can access, but also limit the viewing time as per their judgement. According to the company, the app will allow children to listen, read, view and learn, thereby enhancing their communication skills and improve logical thinking.
