About Kids Knews
At Kids Knews, we believe learning should be an adventure! The 'K' in Knews stands for Knowledge. Our mission is to explain world affairs and happenings through real news stories that are carefully chosen to be appropriate, positive, and engaging for children aged 3-8.
We avoid politics and controversial topics, focusing instead on short, fascinating news items. Every story is paired with a lesson that helps kids understand the 'why' and 'how' behind the news.
Our lovable, high-quality AI avatars bring the news to life in English, German, and more languages to come. Kids Knews is dedicated to fostering education and curiosity in young minds.
