Facebook Messenger Kids is a fun, safe, and controlled environment for children to stay in touch with family and friends.

Overview

Facebook Messenger Kids is a standalone app developed by Facebook, providing a safe, fun, and controlled environment for children under the age of 13. The app allows kids to video chat and message friends and family, under the careful supervision of their parents. It is designed to give parents peace of mind while allowing children to stay connected and learn about digital communication in a secure environment.

Features

Parental Controls: Parents have full control over their child's contact list and can approve or reject any contact requests. Parents can also monitor the messages their children send and receive. The app does not include advertisements or in-app purchases, ensuring that children are not exposed to inappropriate content or enticed to make unauthorized purchases.

Fun and Interactive: The app features a variety of interactive masks, reactions, and sound effects, making video chats more fun and engaging. Kids can also send stickers, GIFs, and images to their contacts, making the messaging experience more enjoyable.

Educational Games: Facebook Messenger Kids includes a selection of educational games that children can play alone or with their friends. The games are designed to be fun and engaging while also promoting learning and development.
