Check a video freeWhat triggers it
Made-for-kids videos that are heavily promotional (toy or food unboxing), encourage bad behaviour, are deceptively educational, are hard to follow (jumbled, mass-produced), are sensational or keyword-stuffed, or put kids' characters in strange or risky situations.
What YouTube says
“If a channel is found to have a strong focus on low-quality “made for kids” content, it may be suspended from the YouTube Partner Program.”
How to fix it
Deliver what the title promises, stop keyword stuffing and keep characters in age-appropriate stories.
Good to know
Check that educational promises (colours, numbers) are delivered correctly, titles aren't stuffed with kids' keywords, and characters stay in age-appropriate situations.
