Echo Dot Kids Edition is on sale for 50% off at Amazon
Looking for a fun gift for your children?
The Echo Dot Kids Edition brings everything you love about the Alexa voice assistant, but with restricted kid-friendly music and apps and a colorful body. The Amazon device is now on sale for $34.99, or 50% off its list price on Amazon.
Usually retailing for $69.99, the Echo Dot Kids Edition works just like the regular Echo Dot, but only features music, stories, jokes, and internet searches for kids, so you don’t have to worry about them accessing adult material and explicit music. Alexa automatically filters for kid-appropriate music from Amazon Music, Spotify, and Apple Music.
The device also comes with one year of FreeTime Unlimited from Amazon, which opens up a whole new world of educational activities, kid-friendly radio stations and playlists, and more than 1,000 children’s audiobooks from Audible. It also has fun games and skills featuring their favorite characters from Nickelodeon, NatGeo Kids, and Disney.
Don’t worry, you can still control all of the Echo Dot Kids Edition’s content, restrictions, and settings with the Amazon Parent Dashboard, while the device also comes with a two-year worry-free guarantee from the online retailer. If the Echo Dot Kids Edition ever gets damaged in any way within two years of your purchase, you can return it to Amazon and the company will replace it free of charge.
The Echo Dot Kids Edition comes in three fun colors.
Amazon customer Kristen L. Newman writes:
“My 6 1/2 yr. son became intrigued with my mother-in-laws Dot. He was constantly asking it to play music and tell jokes. Finally, she got him one for Christmas. We put it up in his room so he won’t drive us crazy. I love that he can play music, games, have it read stories and set an alarm. He wakes up every morning and talks to it (sometimes for 45 min. on the weekend). It gives us an extra 45 min. sleep so I love that too! The only negative I can say so far is that there are a lot of stories he asks for that it will not read.”
