Our amazon kindle screen broke and we got store credit to replace it since we had a warranty. My daughter picked this out instead which was cheaper so I figured we’d give it a try. This is way more user friendly for kids then the kindle! We’re very happy we went with this instead.

So ideally it is a great idea but the case is a slip on fall off kinda thing I wouldn't say it's ideal for 2 and 3 years olds unless adult supervised because if it falls out of the case and hits the floor your out. Other wise it's extremely user friendly .

This tablets has a bunch of educational games and apps already installed. You also can install apps from Google Play and make them available for your child.
The device starts inside a closed PBS app where you can set a timer and allow certain apps and games. A parent password is required to exit out into the Android operating system.

The price and what I was wanting for my 2 1/2 yr old son. He is very smart and always wanting to learn so this was perfect, I can always add more learning game apps if need be. Only somehow he still figured out how to adjust the lighting and sound and turn the Wi-Fi on and off but I can still stop him from doing anything else I don't want him to do(parental controls). Great buy for your little!

They are a great toy because you can control what the kids play. And they have games that work and songs without the Internet but if they drop in to many times it breaks pretty easy.
