Suitable for children over 10 years old.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I installed it and tried it out before giving it to my daughter, and I found it a bit difficult to use. The speed is not very fast and smooth. If possible, I would like it to be able to play sound directly on the machine without connecting to any audio device. But overall, I find this a useful product for children who love reading.

Gets the littles to read more often!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For privacy reasons I will not be including pictures of the kids with the Kindle. We have been using it regularly since delivery. The kids are really getting the hang of it and enjoyed doing their nightly reading. Set up was really easy, as was adjusting parental controls. We have some very advanced readers and we set up a much broader library for them than what is in the pre-set age range. Battery life is excellent, which means I don’t have to worry about interrupting their reading times for charging. They are able to read the words well day or night and adjusting screen brightness is easy. We will be getting a lot of use out of the life of this kindle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this complimentary product from influenster in exchange for my honest review. This is such a cool idea. I always struggle to have my son out down the tablet to read a book, so this is tricking him since it's a screen. I did habe trouble setting it up as it wouldn't connect to my account. But once I got it all was good

Great for kids! Will make the adults want one too!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so impressed with this Kindle for kids! I gave it to my little sister, and right off the bat, she LOVED the beautiful design on the cover/case. The artwork is so fun and beautiful, and it's great to grab the attention of kids to get them more interested in reading. The case seems like it will also be great for protecting the Kindle from damages or being dropped/scratched. The setup was very simple and easy, and hooks right up to the wifi. It also comes with the charger, too! Battery life is great, as it charges fast and lasts forever! I love that the Kindle lights up to make it easy to see, but out doesn't hurt your eyes, and it's not as bright as a phone. The screen is also clear, and images are sharp. Perfect for reading! The refresh rate or time it takes to load and scroll through pages is super fast. I also love that you can set up parental controls for younger children. It even came with a free subscription, which is great! My sister loves that she can also hook up her earbuds through the Bluetooth for audio! This is the perfect size, not too big or too small... and fits perfectly in a small bag purse or bookbag. This has renewed my sister's interest in reading and had me wanting to get one for myself. I particularly want one of these kids' kindles over the regular one... and I'm an adult! Lol

Small but decent

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My children are still slightly young to read on their own but I was so excited to try this kindle! Even though it gave the product specs when ordering, the kindle is significantly smaller than I expected! It is also a bit slow and lags. I made sure I have the most updated software but it still is a bit delayed. The case is super cute and perfect for protection. The parental controls are very easy and finding the book you want is effortless. You can even download adult books on your profile to keep them separate from the kids. If you’re looking for a quaint item to keep in the car for the kids, this would be great!

Super convenient!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really like how compact and sturdy this kindle is specially when the little ones have it. The battery lasts a long time and the fact that there’s no need to carry a bunch of books around is a plus.

Perfect for encouraging reading anywhere, anytime

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The setup was so easy. It has a really good battery life, lasting for weeks with a partial recharge for us. We’ve found the screen bright enough and readability on the screen is excellent. The cover is cute, fits securely to the screen, and has been protecting the screen well. The kindle may be a little heavy for younger children but the actual size is pretty perfect to carry around. The kindle holds up to being dropped—we’ve tested that a few times, so I believe the durability claims!
There is an awesome selection of books and they seem to download fairly quickly (I’m sure that is dependent on internet speeds to a degree). But not all of the books are well-formatted for kindle—in books with pictures, the pictures are on separate pages from the words, even though there is space below the picture for words, like in the physical book. I also wish there was an option to change the screen to color for certain books. I’ve found navigating between the screens to download , view library, and read to be a little confusing, and my daughter certainly cannot do it on her own yet, but we are working on it—like anything else! Having said that, the ability to travel around with so many books in such compact way is awesome
