   If you're like me you've got Kids Mode set up on your home screen

   3 children under 3 will do that to you. If you're not, your kids are a bit older or you have more patience than me, you're going to tap on the Apps button.

   For those kids who want to add some media, this is a little different than the other apps so I will show you how this works

   .

   To start, press the video icon, the bird with the nose.

7. 7
   I've got two videos already set up here

   .

   If you tap a video it will play, and to exit just press the back button. Your child can not delete or significantly modify these videos because they are a part of what you as a part have allowed them to see. This is important because your child loves you, you love your child, and they want to see videos of Mama, Papa, Daddy, whatever it is you call each other. They want to see their brothers, sisters, friends, videos of a pet or a favourite toy. This is how you can add that. You can also add photos as well and we'll get to that shortly.

    Like other things, it does take a moment to bring that up

    .

    We can delete media by pressing the garbage can icon, tap the media you want to delete and press the garbage can icon again. It's important to know that I can go into the folder and delete each video individually, but if we go back and select media to delete, I can only delete everything. So if you want to delete everything, that's the way to do it, but if you just want to delete one or two items, tap on the folder and you will be able to delete individually. Now I have one photo and one video.

Would like to know how to remove decorations from pictures taken in Kids Mode?

My grand kids took some great pictures using Kids Mode. They used the tool chest to add funny decorations such as a mustache, sunglasses, etc. Is there any way to remove the comical decorations once they're added?
