I have started a gaming YouTube channel for children and young people. Would love feed back/advice.


Hello everyone. I have started a gaming YouTube channel for children and young people where the content can be reliably content appropriate.I have worked with children and young people for over 8 years, and I have been a gamer for even longer.With a lot of gaming content aimed at children and young people I believe that some of the games are not suited for them, e.g. grand theft auto and even five nights at Freddy’s can have a negative impact on younger children who are watching let’s play. In addition some of the language used by a lot of youtubers can be seen as offensive and most would not want their children repeating what is said.There is also a flood of content aimed at children with a malicious intent (such as the videos with the most popular random tags to generate views or videos made to look friendly only to have shock value) with many still getting though the YouTube kids app.So, that’s why I have started this channel. The games I play will range between E for everyone and T for teens (e.g. overwatch). I will also be keeping the language clean.This is the first time I have ever done video/sound editing as well as video game commentary. So it will be a learning process. I fear that it will start off abit cringey and low quality, but the more I do it the better I will get. As of this post I have only a few videos on the channel but I aim to have at least 3 videos added each week.And as a final note, I just want to point out that I am not against violent or scary games and play them in my spare time myself. But having seen first-hand children’s reactions to content that they were not ready for (I have met parents whose children as young as 3 have had nightmares about five nights at Freddy’s and not being aware that the game was even from the horror genre or that their children were watching it).So, I am the Good Natured Gamer, and I hope you and your family enjoy my videos :) via /r/raisingkids http://ift.tt/2uyc1Ve
