Q: Is this device waterproof?
submitted by Sarah J - 2 months ago
A: Hi Sarah J, thanks for reaching out about Amazon Kindle Kids' 6" e-Reader (2024). Unfortunately, the Amazon Kindle Kids' 6" e-Reader (2024) is not waterproof. This is one of the key differences between the basic Kindle and the Kindle Paperwhite models. The Paperwhite, including the Paperwhite Kids edition, is waterproof, while the basic Kindle is not. If having a waterproof e-reader is important to you, you might want to consider the Kindle Paperwhite Kids instead. It has the same kid-friendly features as the Kindle Kids, but it's also waterproof and has a larger screen. However, even though the basic Kindle Kids isn't waterproof, it does come with a 2-year worry-free guarantee. This means that if it breaks, even due to accidental damage, Amazon will replace it for free. So, while it's not ideal to get it wet, you have some peace of mind knowing it's covered. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
submitted byJoe - 2 months agoTarget staff supportA: Hi Sarah J! Unfortunately, the Amazon Kindle Kids is not waterproof. If you need a waterproof e-reader, I'd recommend upgrading to the Kindle Paperwhite instead. Hope this helps, have a great day!

Q: Does it work without a subscription like kids plus?
submitted by Winnie The Pooh - 4 months ago
A: Hi Winnie The Pooh, thanks for reaching out about Amazon Kindle Kids' 6" e-Reader (2024) The subscription to Amazon Kids+ is not required to function however as a bonus you do get a 6 month subscription included with the purchase. Without that service you can still add your own books and have parental controls avaialble. It will basically work as a regular Kindle with the added parental controls. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Can this be converted to a regular kindle once they are ready for more grown up books? Like can an 19 year old use this or will they be limited to kid options only?
submitted by A1000lives - 5 months ago
A: Hello! Yes you can use a Kindle Kids as an adult Kindle by switching profiles: Select the parent overlay menu in the top right. Select switch profile. Choose the profile you want to switch to.

Lightweight, small, and has excellent battery life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing I like about this tablet is its lightweight and waterproof design, making it small enough for my child to carry. The best feature is the six-month Amazon Kids subscription, which provides free access to download books and audiobooks. It includes parental controls, and the books my child receives are based on his age. There are no ads, games, or videos. The battery life is excellent—one single charge can last for weeks. It also comes with a two-year warranty, and I have the ability to monitor my son’s reading progress. Additionally, under settings, I can access my library and have the chance to read as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it. I use this for me and my 6yo. Super small and light weight. Could fit in a large pocket. It’s easy to navigate. I love that you can look up words just by holding down your finger on a word. As my daughter gets older and starts reading on her own, I’ll be able to monitor her reading progress.
Great for Kids and Parents!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Kindle for Kids for my 5- and 3-year-old, and they absolutely love it! It fits perfectly in their little hands, making it easy for them to read picture books and listen to audiobooks. I also appreciate the adjustable screen brightness, which helps make bedtime reading more comfortable. Just like a regular Kindle, the battery life is so great and lasts DAYS! Another great feature is that I can download my own books onto it, so I can use it too! Plus, the cover is super cute, which is a nice bonus. It’s a fantastic device that’s both kid-friendly and versatile for parents. Highly recommend!
Perfect product

[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
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.

[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!
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
Great 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
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!
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.
Very cute

The quality and durability is amazing, because we all know that we need those things for children. So far it’s been a whole week and we haven’t needed to charge it. It’s easy for my son to use and he really enjoys the cover that came with it! Perfection!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kindle is decent. It was hard to setup and it kept blacking out. It’s not in color so it’s not as interesting to my 6yr old. It’s pretty fast as far as downloading the books. It’s small in size but the words are easy to see on the inside. It has a decent battery life as well. I would like for it to be more appeasing maybe a read aloud option and some color.
Great battery, life, tons of storage, and an aweso

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is so incredibly happy with this new Kindle! It paired flawlessly with all of the rest of our Amazon devices. I love that it has a clear, free display and back lighting. He shares a room with his brother and now will not need to use a reading light. 16 gigs of memory is a ton so I feel like we will really be able to store a lot, and his child profile quickly paired with the Kindle, so all of my parental controls work on it. We love it!
