Children under the age of 13 can now have a presence on Facebook, sort of. Facebook recently announced its latest feature, which allows parents to tag photos of their children (or pet) to create a scrapbook.
To start a scrapbook for your child, go to your profile, click on “About” and click on “Family and Relationships.” There, you’ll see an invitation to create a scrapbook; click “Get Started.” If you’ve already added a child to your profile, you can click “Add Scrapbook” next to his or her name.
Facebook is looking into a way to give parents the option to hand off their child’s account when they turn 13 and can legally have an account.
The company is planning to launch a way for friends and family to ‘subscribe’ to scrapbooks so you can be notified whenever a photo is added.
Scrapbook will first roll out in the United States on iOS, Android and desktop.
