New Delhi: Video streaming platform YouTube today launched 'YouTube Kids' in India, offering an app aimed at parents as well as tech-savvy children.

He added that India already has a very diverse and rapidly-growing creator base for kids and learning with content in this category growing 100 per cent year-on-year.
"YouTube Kids comes to India at a great time for millions of Indian families, as it provides children access to content that will enrich their lives and create new opportunities for learning.
