Yahoo! Kids was a public web portal provided by Yahoo! to find age-appropriate online content for children between the ages of 4 and 13. It was available in English, where it was known as Yahooligans! until December 2006, and in Korean via Yahoo! Korea.
The website is used for both educational and entertainment purposes. It was introduced in March 1996 by Yahoo! to give children a venue to find appropriate, safe Internet content. Yahoo! Kids was the oldest online search directory for children.
Yahoo! Kids was discontinued in English on April 30, 2013, allowing the company to redirect their resources to their mobile applications.
