Gemini AI for kids: A new era of safe, smart learning

Stricter data policies will govern Gemini’s interaction with young users.
Google upgrades Deep Research with Gemini 2.5 Pro, offering better reasoning and reporting.

Google appears to be working on a child-friendly version of its Gemini AI, offering young users a safer and more controlled experience. A recent teardown of the Google app (version 16.12.39) uncovered strings referencing ‘kid users,’ hinting at an upcoming feature tailored specifically for children.

While Gemini already assists users with creating stories, answering questions, and helping with homework, this kid-friendly version is expected to include stricter content policies and additional safeguards.

Google’s existing safety measures for teens suggest that Gemini for Kids may offer even tighter restrictions and enhanced content moderation.

It remains unclear how Google plans to implement this feature, but it is likely that Gemini for Kids will be automatically enabled for Google accounts registered under a child’s name.

Given global regulations on data collection for minors, Google will reportedly process children’s data in accordance with its privacy policies and the Gemini Apps Privacy Notice.

As AI increasingly integrates into education and daily life, a safer, child-focused version of Gemini could provide a more secure way for kids to engage with technology while ensuring parental peace of mind.
