KidsEmail has put together a fantastic program for kids to be able to use email. For awhile I wanted to create an account for my oldest who is 9 so she could email family and friends. However, I was hesitant to do so because of all the spam she could possibly receive and because the email I would have signed her up for doesn't have parental controls.

When I was offered the chance to review KidsEmail, I knew instantly it would be something both she and I would love. All of the features it comes with to protect her from unwanted email gave me peace of mind.

 

As you can see above, there are many ways to keep the stuff you don't want your children to receive out. Also, there are ways to prevent people you don't want contacting your kids from doing so. It's a pretty simple app.

I added myself to her approved contact list and sent her an email from my account. I also showed her how easy it was to send an email to someone else.

After I set up her email account, I handed the reins over to her. I allowed her to customize it to how she wanted. As you can see, she went with a pretty pink background. I knew she'd pick that one! Haha. She also chose a picture for her account.

As a parent, I really love this app. My daughter has used it for a few weeks now and really enjoys it. After receiving a tablet for Christmas, she can access it whenever she wants and I'll know she's in good hands. It's definitely worth trying out with your kids even if for right now you just try the 30 day free trial.

KidsEmail deserves every reward and recognition they have received, plus some in my book. I didn't have a single problem with this program online or even through the app. It runs fast and smooth.  I highly recommend this email program to any parent with kids who are social.
