35+ Best Kids Educational Videos For K-12 (Every Subject)

Like What You See? Tell Your Friends!

I am not a big fan of “screen time” for kids, but, there are certain kids’ educational videos I don’t mind my son watching.

I have compiled a list of all the kid’s educational videos we have come across.

These are our favorites for kindergarteners through to high school grades.

We use some of these educational videos on Youtube during our homeschool day. My son’s favorite at the minute is Art Hub for Kids. He has never been a fan of anything arty so this is great.

With the right supervision, kids can learn so much from educational videos on YouTube.

If you set up Youtube Kids which has lots of parental controls on it, your children will be much safer online.
