    Purchased this as a gift for my daughter and it was a hit! Easy to install/set up and does include options to “kid-proof” the Alexa interface. You’ll need to control these settings from the Alexa app on your phone.

    My daughter loves the idea that she can control her Alexa functions in her bedroom. Only issue is my son has an alexa too and they sometimes get cross controlling going from their separate bedroom because they are connected by a bathroom.

    Purchased for our daughters room. Liked how to you customize everything your child has access to. Instructions are easy to follow in the Amazon Alexa App. We were able to find a skill for white noise for sleeping.

    Bought this for my 3 daughters ages 7,6,4. They love all that Alexa can do for them. Tell stories, give facts, play their favorite songs also. Mom and I love that you can make an announcement to it from our Alexa ro thiers.

    Got this for my 5 & 7 year old. Mostly the 7 year old uses it to listen to jokes or books. I use it to talk to kids when I'm in another room. Very convenient little device

    By far the coolest present ever. Love the story book telling feature and jokes. Etc... Great colors, volume is nice and loud, but not overwhelming for a 7yo.

    Young kids are hard to understand, but the kids edition gets it right almost every time. My child is psyched that she can have music and books whenever she wants now!

    Used daily for music and as an alarm clock. Well worth the money paid for it. Also, provides a peace of mind knowing the content is limited.
