SEATTLE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–(NASDAQ: AMZN)—Amazon today announced the next generation of its most
affordable kids tablet: the all-new Fire 7 Kids Edition. Featuring a new
kid-proof case with an adjustable stand for easy, hands-free viewing,
the Fire 7 Kids Edition comes in blue and pink, as well as a new purple
color option, and is available for $99.99 starting today at: www.amazon.com/fire7kidsedition.

The Fire 7 Kids Edition is built from the ground-up for kids with three
ideas in mind:

  1. Kids want a real tablet that grows with them—Fire 7 Kids
    Edition offers a 7” IPS display, a faster processor, and 16 GB of
    storage with up to 512 GB of expandable storage via a microSD card
    slot. Fire tablets support up to two adult profiles (accessible with
    secured PIN access) and four child profiles that can be customized for
    each member of the family.
  2. Parents don’t want to worry about the content their kids are viewing—Fire
    7 Kids Edition includes a year of Amazon FreeTime Unlimited, which
    offers more than 20,000 premium books, Audible books, educational
    apps, games, and videos that have been curated for
    age-appropriateness. It also includes access to tens of thousands of
    hand-selected websites and web videos, award-winning parental
    controls, and over 2,000 Spanish language titles.
  3. Despite best intentions, kids break things—Fire 7 Kids Edition
    comes with a kid-proof case, and a two-year worry-free guarantee—if
    they break it, return it and we’ll replace it.

“Fire Kids Edition tablets are the #1 best-selling kids’ tablets in the
U.S. and today, the Fire 7 Kids Edition is getting even better with a
faster processor and a new kid-proof case with a stand,” said Kurt
Beidler, Director of Kids and Family, Amazon. “Now, kids can easily prop
up their tablet to watch their favorite videos, dance along to the
Pinkfong! Baby Shark video, play an educational app like Solar System
Explorer, or choose from over 1,000 kid-friendly Audible books to listen
to. We think parents and kids alike are going to love it.”

Premium Kids Content, Now With 2x the Spanish Language Titles

Tools Parents Can Trust

Over 10 million kids (and their parents) have enjoyed the award-winning
Amazon FreeTime service, which provides the perfect balance between
giving kids the content they love, while providing parents peace of mind
knowing that what their kids are viewing on their device is
age-appropriate. FreeTime offers parental controls that encourage
learning before play, and gives parents the ability to manage their
child’s FreeTime settings, including:

  • Age filters—parents can adjust settings to tailor the FreeTime
    experience for each child and ensure the content their kids are
    viewing is age-appropriate.
  • Learn First—parents can set daily goals for educational
    content, and block access to entertainment content until after
    educational goals are met each day.
  • Screen time by category—parents can restrict certain
    categories, such as apps and games, while leaving unlimited time for
    reading.
  • Total screen time—parents can choose a set amount of total
    screen time per day, after which FreeTime will shut down.
  • Bedtime—parents can control when FreeTime shuts down for the
    day and turns back on the next morning.
  • Weekday and weekend settings—parents can set time limits by
    weekdays and weekends.
  • Add or remove content—parents can add titles from their own
    content library into FreeTime, or choose to remove unwanted FreeTime
    Unlimited content.
  • Enable the web browser—parents can choose to enable or disable
    the kid-friendly web browser within FreeTime.

Additionally, parents can access Parent Dashboard (parents.amazon.com)
to view daily activity reports of the digital content their kids are
using in FreeTime and determine how to manage time limits and
educational goals. Remote parental controls in Parent Dashboard make it
easy for parents to pause their child’s devices for a set amount of
time, as well as adjust their child’s FreeTime settings remotely via any
web browser on a mobile device or computer. Parents can also access
Discussion Cards in Parent Dashboard to view summaries and sample
questions to help them initiate conversations with their kids about the
content they’re viewing in FreeTime.
