Thanks to an update to the YouTube Kids app, parents can now block videos and channels – not because of explicit content – but because they find it annoying. That’s right: You want your kiddo to stop watching those obnoxious videos with the high-pitched voices? Of course you do, because you value your sanity.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Sign into the app with your Google account.
2. Click on the overflow menu (those are the 3 dots below the video and on the right).
3. Select “Block this video.”
4. Verify this with a confirmation code in your email

Bada-Bing, Bada-Boom! You’ve successfully made that video disappear from your child’s search feed.
