And because Kindle Kids Edition is designed only for reading, in FreeTime kids do not have access to the Internet or social media.
Take reading to the next level
Kindle Kids Edition includes tools to help young readers tackle more challenging books.
Vocabulary Builder: Words looked up in the built-in dictionary are automatically added to Vocabulary Builder, which creates flash cards they can use to learn the definitions and usage of words.
Word Wise: With Word Wise, available on many English language titles, short and simple definitions automatically appear above difficult words so kids can keep reading with fewer interruptions. The number of hints can be adjusted with a simple slider.
Take the story with you
With Audible, Kindle Kids Edition lets your child switch seamlessly between reading and listening via Bluetooth-enabled speakers or headphones. With the included 1 year of FreeTime Unlimited, kids have access to over 1,000 Audible books, including Beauty and the Beast and Peter Pan.
Kindle devices don’t support Immersion Reading, which lets you listen and read along as the text highlights.
