I love it but I’d say it’s geared more for younger kids. Teenagers have little to watch there.

If you allow your kids a lot of screentime I think it's worth it. During lockdown my kids learned a lot about yiddishkeit on there. And they enjoyed the entertainment as well.

I also didn't have to sit with them like I do on YouTube.

Now that they are bh back to school and I'm limiting screentime again I didn't renew my subscription. I would highly recommend it though.

My son age 3 didn't like it was not enough variety for him

I think for one year it's well worth it but afterwards hmm. They don't upload new content as often as a secular subscription service would.

I’m surprised! My 3 year old kid can sit for hours with it!

Very worth it for me. They do upload new content often enough for us (my kids have screen time after bathing on Friday afternoon, so they don’t go through the content that fast).

Definitely!
There are often discount codes that make it a bit cheaper.
Even just for the next month, so much peace of mind. There are many hours of cooking coming up and kids will be home a lot.
We’ve been using it for months, including 2 weeks of home quarantine, plus lockdown and my kids still enjoy it

Worth every penny. I’m on my second year.

Same here. But on summer Fridays it can be a long time!

For my family, it was worth it. Even for adults, if you like the Rachel's Place plays or the Kol Neshama productions, they seem to have the entire collection.

It’s a yearly subscription to Jewish children’s films etc.

Anyone use it on an Amazon kids fire tablet? Instructions look complicated.

Yes, I did. It's a few steps, but it's straightforward. You're basically formatting the tablet to download Google Play.

What ages would it be worthwhile for?

Right now the browser is disabled and age restrictions are applied. Would I have to enable the browser to they can access this site?

You would probably have to enable the browser to access those steps to download Google Play. Once you have Google Play, you won't need the browser anymore.
