Manage Kids Mode Websites in Microsoft Edge
Managing kids mode websites in Microsoft Edge lets you control which sites your child can visit.
Microsoft Edge Kids Mode is a special browser setting that offers a safer, simpler way for children to explore the internet. It limits their access to websites and apps, creating a more secure online experience.
You can set this up using either Microsoft Edge itself or the Microsoft Family Safety portal. For a basic setup, you can create an allowed list of specific websites directly within Edge for your child’s Kids Mode profile. This mode is included with Microsoft Edge, the default browser for Windows.
To manage Kids Mode websites, open Edge, go to Settings, then Family, and click Manage allowed sites in Kids Mode. Here you can add new URLs or remove existing ones.
Add or remove websites from the allowed list in Microsoft Edge
You can manage the websites your child sees in Microsoft Edge Kids Mode by adding websites to or taking websites off the allowed list. This feature lets you decide precisely which websites are suitable for your child to visit, either for a single session or permanently.
- Allow for this session: This gives your child one-time access to the site. It does not save the site to the permanent list.
- Add to allowed list: This permanently adds the site to your child’s approved list so they can visit it again later.
To add an approved website, select "Get permission" on the block page. You will need to enter your password to add the site. Entering your password stops children from getting around the safety filters.
First, open Kids Mode in Edge. When you see a site you want to add, click the button to grant permission. 
Managing the list
Managing the list of approved websites for Microsoft Edge Kids Mode is simple, right within the browser’s settings. You can add new sites your child can visit or remove ones they no longer need access to.
On the left menu, click Family. 
On this screen, you can click Add website to type in a new URL. To remove a site, click the X next to the address. Within these settings, you can also switch between age-appropriate content levels, like 6-8 or 9-12, to adjust the automatic filtering sensitivity. 
That is all there is to it!
