**bored.kids is a directory for parents that lists apps, games and online activities for kids 2-14, with a plain-spoken note on what kids do in each one.**

bored.kids is a directory of apps, games and online activities for kids aged 2 to 14.

## How it works
- Pick an age band (2-5, 6-8, 9-12 or 13+) and one of 16 interests, such as reading, math, science, coding, art, music, languages, chess or typing.
- Each listing has a plain-spoken note on what kids do in it and who it might suit, shown next to the provider's own age guidance, the platforms and the subjects.
- Tap the heart on any listing to save it to a shortlist. The shortlist stays in your browser unless you share it as a link, so there's no account to set up. Each heart also counts as a public like.

## Discover and Collections
Discover has guides built around questions kids ask, like "Why does the Moon change shape?", and Collections group listings by theme, like "For the kid who asks why".

## Suggest a product
Anyone can suggest a product through the listing form, and the site's moderators decide what gets featured.
