A:AnswerHi Jimmy! You will need a general Amazon account to use the Fire 7 Kids tablet. If you are new to Amazon, you'll be prompted to create an Amazon account during the initial device setup. The Amazon account is free and you do not need to be a Prime member to use the tablet. The Fire Tablet Kids is for kids ages 3-7. The tablet comes with a kids proof case that helps to protect the tablet. But don't worry if it breaks! The Kids Tablet comes with a 2-year worry-free guarantee: if it breaks, return it and we'll replace it for free. The Kids Tablets also come with 1 year of Amazon Kids+ (FreeTime Unlimited) gives your kids access to over 20,000 apps, games, books, videos, audiobooks, and educational content from PBS Kids, Nickelodeon, Disney, and more. Your subscription will then automatically renew every month starting at just $2.99 per month plus applicable tax. You may cancel at any time by visiting the Amazon Parent Dashboard or contacting Customer Service. I hope that helps! Have a great day!
