If you can stream it, read it, or play it, chances are you’ll find a review in Common Sense Media that’ll help you decide if it’s right for your child.

What we love: Wondering if a new superhero movie is appropriate for your 9-year-old, or looking for a book that teens have loved? Search over 45,000 reviews covering topics like violence, sexual content, diversity, and educational value, all written with input from expert reviewers, parents, and kids themselves.

Quick tip: Update your child’s profile to get the best personalized recommendations. The app can suggest TV shows that satisfy a newfound fascination with outer space, books that are just the right amount of scary, or movies that explore positive themes you may be talking about at home, like gratitude and self-control.

Meet the creator: The nonprofit Common Sense Media was founded in 2003 to help parents evaluate media for their kids. “We do the heavy lifting by watching, reading, playing, and streaming everything so you don’t have to,” says chief content officer Jill Murphy.
