Amazon Launches Kids Tablets with Parental Controls
Amazon has introduced a new line of kid-friendly Alexa tablets designed to give parents control over their children's access to apps and content. These devices, available in two sizes (8.7-inch and 11-inch), feature parental controls through the Amazon Parent Dashboard, allowing screen-time limits, usage monitoring, and learning goal settings. The tablets also include a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids Plus with ad-free educational content from major brands like Disney and Nickelodeon. The devices are priced at $229.99 for the 8.7-inch model and $329.99 for the larger 11-inch version, both offering enhanced features such as stylus support and improved displays. Parents can also approve or restrict downloads from the Google Play Store remotely via iOS or Android apps. The tablets are set to launch on October 14 in the US after a preorder period begins soon.
