Kids Shelf
A self-hosted video library for young children, with daily minutes and no feed
Parents who want YouTube's good parts without its recommendation engine get a free, local alternative that runs on a spare computer or Raspberry Pi.
Kids Shelf runs on a computer you leave on at home, whether Windows, Mac, Linux or a Raspberry Pi, and serves a page any browser in the house can open. You choose the videos, downloaded from YouTube via yt-dlp or taken from your own folders. Each child has a PIN and a daily allowance that rolls over. Learning shows cost half, some cost nothing, and maths and spelling practice earns extra time. Nothing autoplays. Offline Wikipedia comes via Kiwix. MIT, no tracking.
