Youtube keeps promoting ads on my child's YouTube channel while they watch videos about babies such as baby sharks or other channels similar to it.

Description

This has been my question since I first gave my baby girl the tablet, as well as all the Youtube channels specifically designed specifically for babies. All of them are said to aid infants in their development, cognitive and other functions in addition to helping their mental and social development. Yes, I can feel my daughter getting enthralled by the videos. Her eyes sparkle with laughter, and she is waiting for the giggles to disappear from her lips. I enjoy watching her get entertained. http://cqms.skku.edu/b/lecture/590800 But I don't understand all the commercial breaks. My child isn't an ad-buyer, so why do you insist on pushing sometimes not even baby-like advertisements onto my baby on YouTube??

First off, infants are unable to understand commercials. This is both a waste and also a loss of money. Babies aren't smart, they don't understand! If they can't comprehend the message you're trying to convey Why do you play these ads for their little babies? Are you saying that ads will be displayed in the event that parents or other baby-care workers are watching? The ads are becoming annoying.

The same is true for cat videos. Recently, I noticed that my cat enjoys watching these captivating videos for cats. Usually, it's birds or mice but my cat is intrigued by the fact that they don't move for hours. It's hunting, I suppose. https://cipres.fogbugz.com/default.asp?pg=pgPublicView&sTicket=698883_o03iml48 These videos are always interrupted by ads. Who are they trying to convince? My cat isn't a consumer of anything but those videos. The advertisements aren't relevant to her. They may be thinking that I'm watching them alongside my cat. While they could be partially accurate, I've noticed that I enjoy watching those videos of cats with my cat more often than I do any other useful thing.

So I came across a fantastic solution I've used recently. It's as easy as downloading Youtube videos to my computer or my daughter’s tablet, and then playing them from there. You see what I mean? This website lets me save video to my computer rather than making it available on Youtube each time my cat watches birdies. This lets me double-click an mp4 on my computer. It is played in VLC immediately and doesn't contain commercials.

The same process is applicable to videos for babies. Just search for the videos my daughter loves and then download them onto my computer, and then transfer the videos to my table. If it's only 1-2 songs, I sometimes use her tablet to do this. But, it's easier to use this website on your desktop computer. You can then transfer the video files the place you'd like to put them. Perhaps it is me, an old school...

It was an amazing mobile data-saving device. This is an excellent method to store mobile data.

I truly hope you liked my advice and tricks to create a data-rich household. I know this sounds like a little absurd.
