Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hello! Thank you for your feedback about the Echo Dot Kids. I'm sorry to hear you feel the device alone doesn't meet your needs and that you're looking for a more comprehensive product ecosystem.

The Echo Dot Kids is designed as an entry-level smart speaker with parental controls and kid-friendly content, but Amazon offers a full spectrum of Echo and Alexa-enabled devices that work together to create a complete smart home experience. You might consider expanding to devices like the Echo Show for video calling and visual content, the Echo Hub for smart home control, or pairing multiple Echo devices throughout your home for whole-home audio and communication. These devices work seamlessly together, allowing you to drop in between rooms, create speaker groups, and control smart home devices from any location.

If you'd like guidance on which products would best complement your current setup, Amazon Customer Support is available 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331. Thank you for your feedback!

Hello Kirby! Thank you for sharing your feedback on our Echo Dot Kids. The device is intended to be used for kids content specifically and can be adjusted via the Alexa smartphone app and Parent Dashboard. Some things about this device are as follows: Kids can ask Alexa to play music, read a bedtime story, get help with their homework, and more. Stream songs from Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and others. INCLUDES 1 YEAR OF AMAZON KIDS+ – A digital subscription designed for kids aged 3-12 to safely learn, grow, and explore.

Kids can help take charge of their routines with Alexa by setting their own alarms or turning off compatible smart lights. Use the Hey Disney! voice assistant to get the weather with Mickey, set a reading timer with Dory or Olaf, and more. Kids can also customize the way their Alexa sounds with a pretend owl or dragon voice, along with character-inspired songs, jokes, and greetings included with the 1 year of Amazon Kids+. 2-YEAR WORRY-FREE GUARANTEE – If it breaks, return it and we’ll replace it for free. In addition to all of this, there are plenty of other uses as well if you want to use it as a standard Echo Dot. In the Alexa smartphone app, you can add profiles to it and PIN protect it from allowing kids to access it without parent's approval.
