PC Parental Controls and Even More Functionality from the Mikko Que

Is there a constant battle in your home over how much time your children spend surfing the Internet? Have you found it increasingly more difficult to pull your kids away from browsing the Web, chatting with friends, watching videos, and the other online activities they love? Are there constant arguments when it comes time to shut off the computer and do homework or chores, eat dinner, or go to bed? If so, you may be searching for some sort of PC parental controls that can help make this situation easier on you.

That's precisely what the Mikko Que can do. This innovative computer monitoring device not only provides you with effective PC parental controls, but it also allows you to monitor and regulate your kids' screen time with the TV, video games, and other media and entertainment devices in your home.

Here's a look at how it works. Say you wish for your 10-year-old son to have access to the Internet for only 1.5 hours a day, between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. Use any computer, whether yours or a friend's, to save your child's schedule and time limits onto a USB drive, called the TimeKey. Then, when your child is ready to begin using the Internet, he will plug his TimeKey into the Mikko Que and choose "Internet" on the device's LCD screen. This starts the clock on his allotted time, and when the time limit nears, an audible and visual warning will go off alerting your son to save his work. Once his time is up, the Mikko Que's PC parental controls will disable the Internet signal, but not the power supply to the computer. This prevents any damage that can occur from improper shut-downs of your electronic devices connected to the Que.

The Que goes above and beyond these PC parental controls by offering the exact same advanced parental control functionality when you plug in your Internet connection, TV, video games, and more. Help teach your kids responsible media consumption habits and time management skills with the Mikko Que.
