Child Proof, Durable, Great Sound, Slow Software
My little one always loved talking to Alexa so decided to try out this Echo for kids. I was very impressed with the ease of setup and packaging. The plug fits snugly and "snaps" inside the Echo which gives it a good snug connection especially if the cord is pulled on for whatever reason. "Never know with Kids" My issue is the cord is so short. I really wished they had a longer cord so I can place the echo in a better place. Upon start up, it was easy to connect to the wifi and log into my amazon account. It requires you to accept the "Amazon Kids+" subscription before continuing as there is no way to back out of it. I understand its a year free subscription however I do wish there was a back-out option to be there. I love the manual shutter close of the camera, I keep that closed at all times and disabled that within the settings. I do wish there was a way to snap or lock the shutter so the kid cant open it or mess with it. However as long as its disabled I guess that is ok. The responsiveness of voice commands is great and pulls up all the available kids apps. I enjoyed each of the kids apps, "Stories", "Skills" , "Videos" and "Music". The screen display is small however displays at high quality which was great at watching videos. The only surprising issue was how slow the responsiveness was when navigating through touchscreen to the different apps. As mentioned before, if you ask Alexa to do it, it loads fast and easy. However if your kid tries to use the touch menu to navigate and launch an app its painfully slow. Half the time my kid gave up on trying to get to where they wanted lol. I checked settings, verified latest software update was there and restarted. Nothing works at the moment, so hopefully the OS touchscreen can be improved over time. The best part about the Echo is the sound system and Alexa mic picking us up no mater the volume of our voices. My little ones voice is picked up easily along with mine anywhere in the room. As for the sound system, that in my opinion is the best part! Sing-a-longs are a blast, the music sounds great, nice deep bass and high trebles. Plus there is an EQ to customize the sound levels. Speaking of the settings, there are a ton of customization that you can set on the device. I strongly recommend going through all the settings, especially the "Privacy" Settings. During setup you are limited what you can sign out of. So its especially important to go in there and realize what you just signed up / agreed to. I would say its sneaky however almost every company does that now unfortunately. Overall this is a great little product that can withstand littles ones manhandling, has great sounds and great kids apps. Hopefully they can improve the touch response through software to bump this up to 5 stars.

Fun speaker for kids
The Amazon Echo Show 5 is designed for kids and is another solid entry into the Amazon smart video speaker family, with the usual drawbacks. The design itself is cool, with a space theme and variety of colors that should offer universal appeal and fit with decor in most kids' rooms. The box comes with the 'instructions' pamphlet, the speaker and a plug. As any "Amazon Parent" already knows, most of the set up and permissions for kids are actually done through Amazon. It's easy enough, though the password for parental permissions gets ridiculously tricky (I've had devices lock before due to not remembering the password and having a really hard time trying to reset it). The screen is bright and clear, though it's on the small side so it can be hard to see from farther away. The games designed for kids by Amazon are pretty fun, though can be a little repetitive (which kids don't seem to mind, but can drive parents a little crazy haha). There are cool learning games available and my daughter has had a fun time interacting with many of them. The usual caveats with Amazon's 'smart' video speakers continue to be a slight issue with this device, unfortunately. The screen isn't always responsive to touch, and can be very frustrating when trying to navigate, especially for a child with very little patience. My daughter also has a slight lisp so the speaker doesn't always understand her--and at times it doesn't understand me, either. I will say it has understood some complicated things with no issues, then gets confused on things that seem easy. These issues don't come up that often, though, so a little patience goes a long way. Amazon's web search for answers to questions is hit-or-miss, but that's always been true. The sound is good, though not quite as good as the dedicated speakers Amazon makes (which is to be expected). Video playback is typically excellent from what I've seen so far, but of course there are a lot of outside factors that affect this so your mileage may vary. It's a very effective alarm clock and timer, and comes in handy for homework, too! Overall my daughter is very excited about using it and can sometimes get very wrapped up in games or just listening to music. For kids it's excellent, and offers a wide variety of parental controls through Amazon that should keep you feeling secure that your child is safe while using it.

Great Educational device has so much to offer!!
The Amazon Echo Show Kids has been a great addition to my daughters learning adventure. She is currently 4 years old and has loved the Echo Show since she got it. The Amazon Echo Show is loaded with one FREE year of Amazon Kids which is LOADED with so many educational books, videos,music and fun games.I Love that they are all kid friendly and that you don’t have to worry about your child opening sites or content they are not supposed to. My daughter’s speaking skills are still a tiny bit hard to understand but that was not an issue, as Alexa seems to comprehend what she tries to say. She enjoys saying “Hey Alexa”. My daughter is still small as she is only 4 years old so she still can’t fully take advantage of what the Amazon Echo Show kids has to offer on her own so I constantly have to help her navigate the app and teach her how to ask Alexa for certain things and also allow Alexa to respond because sometimes my daughter would speak over Alexa and it would get super confusing for both.But of course every child is different and some get it right away, but with time and as she grows up she will take more advantage of what Amazon kids has to offer. The Amazon Echo Show kids works just as the regular one, the touch screen would be off sometimes and would lag to respond. I did find that quite annoying and had to go back and try again. That cause frustration on my daughters behalf and she would constantly yell at Alexa. The space design on the back is very cute. Speaker sounds very nice and smooth. I like the option to cover up the camera. Definitely download the Alexa app for more options and how to customize your device. I currently have 2 Amazon Echos and both work as indoor cameras as well. You can make calls or just drop in an announcement in between both Echos. Overall this is a great device that has a ton to offer and all kid friendly and safe to use.
