Kanopy Kids is Kanopy's curated collection of content for children, with a focus on ages 2 -8 years. While in the Kanopy Kids section, you'll only see content that's age-appropriate and allows unlimited viewing.
Kanopy Kids is our collection of movies and shows for kids. Here your kids are free to explore enriching, educational and entertaining content.
With your library card, all our members have free access to Kanopy Kids. Access it by clicking Kids in the top-right corner of the homepage.
Or, in the mobile app, tap More at the bottom of the screen, then Go to Kanopy Kids.
Set up Parental Controls to make sure your children are viewing age-appropriate content on Kanopy.
With Parental Controls enabled, you will need to enter your PIN when exiting Kanopy Kids in order to watch content outside of the kids collection.

Using parental controls
With Kanopy's parental controls enabled, you can only view titles in Kanopy Kids. To exit Kanopy Kids or watch videos outside of Kanopy Kids, you'll need to enter a four-digit PIN.
To set up parental controls
Log in to your Kanopy account from a web or mobile browser.
Go to My Account and select Parental Controls.
Enter a four-digit PIN and select Turn On. We recommend using an original PIN that doesn't include any part of your address, phone number, or other number that your child might guess.
Parental controls can only be managed from a browser, though your PIN will be required to exit Kanopy Kids from any device.
To disable your PIN
Go to Parental Controls and enter your PIN.
Select Turn Off.
To reset your PIN
Go to Parental Controls and select Forgot PIN?
Select Send. Directions for resetting your PIN will be sent to the email address associated with your Kanopy account.
A Forgot PIN link will be available across all devices, but you can only reset your PIN through a browser. If you're using the Kanopy app, the link in the email will redirect you to the Kanopy website.
