Kosher online games for kids
Looking for kosher online games your children can play without you hovering over the screen? Playtime613 is a set of 21 Jewish games for kids, made for frum families, with a real Yiddishe taam. Children bake challah, sort milchig and fleishig, build a sukkah, walk through the Beis Hamikdash in 3D and race through traffic with Hatzolah. Everything they see is heimish, and there is nothing in it you'd want to hide from them.
Best for: frum families who want safe, ad-free heimish games for children aged 5–15: Shabbos, Yom Tov, mitzvos, brachos and chessed.
What makes a game “kosher” for children?
For us it means three things. The content is right: Shabbos, Yom Tov, mitzvos, brachos, kashrus and chessed, with the words children hear at home and in cheder. The screen is clean: no ads, no chat with strangers and no links that wander off to other websites. And parents stay in charge: a grown-up PIN, a daily timer and a Shabbos and Yom Tov lock.
