Fans of Spotify love that it allows them to listen to music anywhere and everywhere. The music streaming service that also allows subscribers to not only stream music and podcasts but also view videos is becoming, even more, family-friendly with the launch of Spotify Kids, a new app available coming soon to all Family Premium members.

In a press release, the company acknowledges that Spotify was originally created for adults and that the idea to create Spotify Kids came as a result of wanting to create "a playground of sound just for kids—to build a place where younger kids can explore their favorite music and stories in a fun environment."

Spotify Kids will be ad-free and will contain content that is hand-picked by a team of expert editors. Kids get to create their own custom avatar when creating their profile and set their own color theme. You must have the premium family subscription from Spotify to access Spotify Kids, which allows for six accounts to access Spotify for the cost of $14.99 per month. The app was created for children ages 3 and up and has a completely different look and feel than regular Spotify, on purpose. "It’s built for kids, with their specific cognitive skills in mind, and exudes a fun, familiar, playful, and bright atmosphere," the company states before explaining that the app even varies in its look and feel depending on the age of the user, being more character driver for younger children and more detailed for older kids.

Spotify Kids has already launched a beta in Ireland, with the Spotify team explaining they want to launch in beta first in order to understand what if any changes will need to be implemented before rolling it out officially.  "We are being very deliberate in our launch approach. We’ve started with a beta launch in Ireland, knowing that this initial roll-out phase will yield many learnings from parents, caregivers and other experts as they begin to interact with the app."

The company states that they've taken two years to research the children's music space and hopes to continue to learn as the app grows. This seems like a huge bonus for parents who are often concerned about the content their children are consuming when online. Having a safe space for children to explore that is trusted by parents is definitely worth the investment if music streaming is popular in your home.

Spotify has currently launched the beta in Ireland and will be rolling the app out to all markets as soon as they can. You can check out spotify.com/ie/kids for updates.
