Some other features of Kids Mode include:

Any website tracking scripts are blocked during use. The Edge SafeSearch filter limits web searches. Any settings changes or leaving Kids Mode requires entering your computer password or pin.

Kids Mode is ideal to use if your child is between the ages of 5 and 12 years old. You’ll have the option to configure Kids Mode between two age ranges, and you can modify this setting at any time.
