The last Kindle I purchased for me is the Amazon paperwhite kids. But it’s not for a kid, it came in a bundle with a better warranty and a case, and was a better deal than buying the same Kindle paperwhite on its own.

Yeah. I’ve been there. What helped was them going to school. lol. What also helped was losing my shit and telling my husband he had to take the kids OUT 3+ hours every weekend. You need time to rest in your safe space. Eventually you’ll start to feel better once you have some time alone. Maybe your

I can't comment on the durability of any, as I've never had a problem with Kobo, Kindle, Boox, or PocketBook. But I also baby my electronics, so that nothing happens to them. The big difference for me, is that Kobo sells official OEM replacement parts through iFixit. That gives me piece of mine, tha

There is a good chance of battery being dead. You can get a replacement if you want, buuuut you also have a better option: trade it in to Amazon and get 20% discount on new Kindle. There is currently a sale for Kindle Paperwhite Kids edition. It is technically the same as regular one, but comes with

When Amazon launched the FreeTime app for kids (2011-ish IIRC) I remember allllll the parenting groups online talking about how it'd be so beneficial for kids, especially young kids, because there were so many learning apps and the earlier kids learned how to use tech, the better it'd be for them --

If you for sure want a 7” screen and no color, kobo isn’t an option since the kobo libra colour is their only 7” device currently. I have one and like it a lot, but some people have strong opinions about the color screens. It is nice to just go to the overdrive tab on the device and browse and borro

Just go for a Kindle Paperwhite Kids / Kindle Kids. They come with a free case, free warranty, and you can just use parental controls to disable the browser and control the store. Plus... it's a Kindle. It's the most robust and accessible product on the market.

I have the following. I should also add that they are all second hand from Facebook marketplace with the exception of one. The most I paid was $150 for the 2024 kindle scribe. The least I paid was $5 for the 10th gen Paperwhite. I recently found the 2024 Paperwhite in raspberry at a thrift store for

When you buy the kindle it comes with a free year of Amazon kids+ in my experience. However if you don’t renew the membership then all that stuff goes away. Our kids kindles just have pbs kids and a couple other apps now, it’s great. I don’t know how to remove before the year subscription is up thou

We just got my 7 year old a Kindle Paperwhite kids. It comes with a 2 year full warranty against drops, etc. It also comes with 12 months of Kindle Kids plus. You can set up parental controls to put on age restrictions. He carries it everywhere.
