Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids Edition (2017) Review

The Fire HD Kids Edition is loaded with software that helps you (the parent) manage what your child can do. For example, if you want your toddler to read for 30 minutes before playing any games, you can do that.

For one year, the tablet comes with Amazon's Free Time Unlimited subscription ($36 value). After that it costs $2.99/month.

Amazon FreeTime includes unlimited access to Amazon's offerings of books, movies, TV shows, educational apps and games picked specifically for kids between 3-10 years old. It also includes the parental control features, like individual profiles for each child, time limits, and the ability to block games until educational goals are met.

With a relatively high powered quad-core 1.3GHz processor for high performance and 1.5GB of RAM, this tablet has more than enough power for your child.

The tablet comes with a hefty soft plastic case which helps prevent any damages from drops, throws, scratches etc. Also, Amazon is willing to replace any tablet that does get broken for up to two years. Parents can rest assured that this will be the only tablet you will need to buy for your toddler.

The Fire HD Kids Edition comes with a vibrant 8” HD display (1280 x 800 resolution at 189 ppi).
