Amazon FreeTime Unlimited is an all-in-one subscription that brings together all the types of content that kids ages 3-12 want, with over 20,000 books, movies, TV shows, educational apps, games, and Audible audiobooks. Fire Kids Edition includes a year of Amazon FreeTime Unlimited at no additional cost.
Each Fire Kids Edition tablet comes with a Kid-Proof Case and a 2-year worry-free guarantee, giving parents peace of mind and kids freedom to play.
Download your child’s favorite videos, apps, and books for access even when you don’t have Wi-Fi. When an Internet connection is unavailable, your child will automatically see available content that has been downloaded to their FreeTime profile.
Manage and customize your kids' experience with up to four individual child profiles. Set bedtime curfews and employ tighter controls on screen time and content. With Learn First, you can block access to videos and games until educational targets such as reading goals are met. Parents can exit Amazon FreeTime using a passcode to get full access to all tablet features including settings, apps, and Alexa in the adult profile. While in Amazon FreeTime, kids do not have access to social media, the internet or Alexa, and they can't make in-app purchases without parental approval.
The web browsing experience keeps out the inappropriate content while still offering tens of thousands of websites and web videos. Parents can also easily add more websites.
The Kid-Proof Case is designed to be the perfect solution for parents who need worry-free protection against drops, bumps, and the typical mayhem caused by kids at play. Designed to be durable and lightweight, the Kid-Proof Case fits perfectly in their hands without adding unnecessary weight to the Fire tablet.
We all know accidents happen. The 2-year worry-free guarantee includes coverage for anything that happens to your Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet. Just return the tablet and we’ll replace it for free. Learn more
