Samsung Kids Mode 12.4.00.120 requires the following permissions:

Allows applications to access information about networks.

Allows an application to tell the AppWidget service which application can access AppWidget's data. The normal user flow is that a user picks an AppWidget to go into a particular host, thereby giving that host application access to the private data from the AppWidget app. An application that has this permission should honor that contract.

Allows an application to broadcast sticky intents. These are broadcasts whose data is held by the system after being finished, so that clients can quickly retrieve that data without having to wait for the next broadcast.

Allows applications to change Wi-Fi connectivity state.

Allows an application to delete packages.

Allows applications to disable the keyguard if it is not secure.
