I’m genuinely impressed with the Kindle for kids. What I love most is that it makes reading feel like something children want to do rather than something they’re being asked to do. The device is lightweight, easy for little hands to use, and the screen is comfortable for reading. The battery life is also a huge plus, especially when traveling or during busy days when you don’t want to worry about constantly charging another device. But what really stands out to me is how it encourages children to spend more time reading and less time being distracted by everything else. Having books readily available makes it easy for a child to pick up the Kindle and get lost in a story. I also appreciate the kid-friendly features and the peace of mind they provide to parents. It feels like a thoughtful product designed not just to entertain children, but to help develop a lifelong love of reading. For any parent or grandparent looking for a meaningful gift that combines technology with learning, the Kindle for kids is a wonderful choice. It’s one of those gifts that can provide hours of enjoyment while giving a child something truly valuable—the love of books.

I was the kind of kid who stayed up past bedtime, secretly reading under the covers with a flashlight. Now my kids can do the same thing without juggling a flashlight.

Purchased as a Christmas gift for my granddaughter who loves to read. All her older siblings have this version of a kindle as well and they are used on a regular basis as they are home schooled. With a Kindle account the amount of books available for reading are limitless. Dad leads a family 'book club' that keeps them all involved and reading everything from the classics to books that are just fun.

Nice idea but does lag quite a bit and have to restart it frequently as it often shows there are no wifi networks to connect to even though none of our other devices have an issue connecting.

Hello Jonathan. I'm sorry to hear about the connectivity and performance issues with your Kindle Kids—it's frustrating when a device lags frequently and has trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, especially when all your other devices work fine on the same network. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try: make sure your Kindle Kids has the latest software updates by going to Settings > Device Options > Advanced Options > Update Your Kindle, try restarting your router and then reconnecting the Kindle, forget the Wi-Fi network on the Kindle and reconnect by going to Settings > Wi-Fi & Bluetooth > select your network and choose "Forget" then reconnect, move the Kindle closer to your router to see if distance is causing the issue, check if your router's firmware is up to date, and try disabling any VPN or firewall settings that might be interfering with the connection. We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback and want to make sure you have a fully functional Kindle Kids that works reliably for your child's reading experience.

Got this for my 10 yr old granddaughter, who is an avid reader. She loves it, and was especially happy with the cool Ocean Explorer cover design

Only reason I chose 4 stars is it tends to be a little slow / laggy and my kids don't know how to wait long to enough to have to catch up.

It is very slow. With every swipe you have to wait a few seconds. It can be quite irriating. Its nice and compact. Perfect for reading. How ever, we did have an issue with redeeming the free 1 year subscription that comes with it

Hi Nini20, thank you for providing feedback on the Amazon Kindle Kids. I am sorry to see you haven't had the best experience possible thus far. In regards to the speed of the Kindle, this could stem from a few different reasons. My first recommendation is to verify the strength of the Wi-Fi. I would also recommend going into your device settings and check for any pending software updates, as newer versions often include performance improvements. If these steps do not help and you are still experiencing issues, you can reach out to Amazon Customer Support 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331. Thank you again, Happy Holidays!
