INSTRUCTIONS

A Note About Parental Controls

• The setup process will take about 15-20 minutes.
• We recommend that you spend some time setting up the device the way you like before handing it to your kid.
• Every family and kid is different, and you can talk with your kid about the choices you are making.
• Once you have configured the tablet, you can adjust settings from your own smartphone or computer.
• As your kid learns more about how to use their computer, you may want to modify the settings.

Some questions to consider when you set up parental controls:
SCREEN TIME
How much time will your kid use the computer each day? Are there certain days or times when they might have more or less time?
APPS
Some apps have a primarily educational role, and some apps are primarily for entertainment. Will they need certain apps for school, or are there trusted apps you’d like to install ahead of time? Are there apps that you want to restrict or allow? Will your kid be able to browse the app store? Kids will need your permission to download new apps, and you can control paid apps and in-app payments.
WEB BROWSING
This device uses Google Chrome with Safe Search, but you will want to consider unsupervised web browsing for your kid. You can adjust which websites are allowed or prohibited.

Setting up your Tanoshi Scholar

Before getting started, you will need:

• Local WiFi network and password Information
• A parent’s new/existing Google Account
• A fully charged Tanoshi Scholar!

In just a few minutes, you’ll be able to write your first computer program!

CAUTION: These instructions are for setting up the computer for a kid under the age of 13.If you are setting this device up for an adult, disregard this section and set up the device using your new/existing Gmail account.

NOTE: This Setup Process is subject to change. Please see tanoshi.com/FAQ for the latest information

Create a NEW Google Account for your kid to use that will be managed by Family Link (if they don’t already have a managed account)

Sign in with an existing parent Google Account, and verify that you are an adult
This will link the devices and let the parent manage the Tanoshi Scholar device settings. We recommend using a Google Account already active on the parent’s phone.
In this step, you will be providing parental consent for the creation of your child’s Google Account managed by Family Link. This step may require you to provide a credit card to verify that you are an adult.

CAUTION: To install Family Link on a parent’s phone, it must be running Android™ 5.0 or later, or iOS 9 or later.

Select apps and services, configure parental controls, and install Family Link on your phone
Feel free to spend some time now configuring the device, you can always change and add to these settings on your phone or on your kid’s device later!
