Kahoot! Kids offers a new app experience designed for the littlest learners at home and school. By playing with Kahoot! Kids, children from 2 to 7 years old can develop early learning skills across math, reading and cognitive disciplines in a safe, ad-free and explorative environment.

Parents and educators can find a wide variety of child-friendly kahoot games crafted and curated by early childhood learning experts, including content from trusted Kahoot! Academy Verified educators and Premium partners.

"We are introducing a brand new way for young learners to experience Kahoot!, providing an engaging and age-appropriate environment where children can explore at their own pace or multiply the learning fun by playing together," says Eilert Hanoa, CEO, Kahoot!. "By launching Kahoot! Kids, we're excited to offer families and educators a space where they can feel confident in their kids discovering knowledge and developing key skills as they play, learn and grow their connections with family and friends."

As children develop these skills, the playful and entertaining experiences of Kahoot! Kids make learning joyful and help them lay a foundation for children to become lifelong learners.

Additional features will be added to Kahoot! Kids in 2022, including new content from Kahoot! and partners. Parents will also be able to create their own kahoots and follow their children's learning progress with reports.
