    I couldn't be happier with this. My daughter now goes to her room for bedtime with zero prompts to do so, and no longer struggles to wake up and get ready for school. This product reads her stories, sets alarms that she requests, plays music, tells her jokes, answers questions, etc. I don't have to worry about her ordering items off of Amazon due to it being a kids product. She can also call me from it, as well as other people in my contacts such as grandparents, etc. I love it!

    We had a heck of a time getting this to set up with our internet and since using it for just under a month it has dropped internet connection one other time. The only way I was able to get it to reconnect was to unplug the unit and plug it back in then reconnect. Otherwise it just searched and searched and never a connected for some reason. Otherwise my daughter loves this, the speaker quality is really good, and it gets pretty loud too. We got her an Amazon smart plug too that her lamp is plugged in to and she can use her echo to tell it to turn her lamp on and off which is nice since it’s up on her dresser and the switch is back on the cord. Besides the connectivity problem we had I’d still recommend this! It’s adorable and great for kids since it sensors content as well!

    The kids love having their own dot. They play music, use routines, timers, and alarms, and ask it questions as part of their distance learning. The freetime features seem to work as well as the Alexa system.

    I love the design!! I bought this for my kids for alarms, reminders, listening to music but both their devices get confused and will get the music playing on the opposite device so it gets intertwined..other than that its still pretty good my kids love it btw they are always "talking" with alexa

    Great for kids because there are the parental controls which don't allow them to make purchases. The Rainbow colors are kid friendly.

    We purchased for our 8 year old and she is probably at the upper age for this unit. Through parental control, you can make any, less expensive version of the Echo safe for kids, this just comes pre-configured for younger kids and she loved the rainbow exterior

    This was the perfect addition to our school routine. My daughter loved the fact that she could set her own timer while doing school work. She also likes to be able to play the radio kids lullaby’s at night. It’s also really handy for being able to quickly put something on for the dog when running out of the house! Great product!

    I bought this Echo Dot for my daughter’s room and she LOVES it!! She can easily play music, have stories read to her, and listen to rainforest sounds/waves while falling asleep. The sound quality on this little guy is incredible. I would recommend this product to any parent.

    Purchased for my son and he absolutely loves his Alexa. This kids edition is perfect for them. They can have their own reminders to help them be a bit more independent, it has games, tells them jokes and stories. Its a neat device to help / entertain them.
