Are you thinking about buying Kindle Fire for kids and questioning whether it is a good electronic device for children? I completely understand your concerns. Video commercials provide just enough information to get your attention, and comprehensive product descriptions online might be confusing to say the least. Can you play games on the electronic device? Who makes it? Is it an Android Device? Does it have a camera? Are there parental controls to help adults monitor what children are exposed to on the tablet? Is the tablet easy to break? That’s the kind of information you do need to know before handing a $200 device over to a toddler, a preschooler, or an elementary school-aged child. Here you will find answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Kindle Fire HD for Kids. Do you have questions I haven’t covered?

Kindle Fire for kids Review
Kindle Fire at A Glance
Kindle Fire tablet was first introduced in November 2011 as an affordable Android tablet with Fast Internet Browser. Amazon’s vision was to sell a high-quality tablet at a great price in order to increase digital product sales (Movies, Songs, Books, etc.). It turned out to be the perfect tablet for those who wanted a device comparable to IPAD MINI 2 CASE FOR KIDS but wasn’t ready to pay the price of $500+ for a tablet.

Although Kindle Fire was not initially marketed as a “kids tablet”, it became a popular gift for kids ages 7 and up. Parents who bought LeapPad and InnoTab tablets for their 7 and 8 year olds later realized that Kindle Fire Tablet was a far better long-term investment. When InnoTabs and LeapPads were selling for around $100-$150 a tablet, plus additional $20 per game, the Amazon tablet for around $200 turned out to be a great value. When compared to “little kids tablets”, Kindle Fire had much more to offer – access to an abundance of Free Apps, an amazing MP3 player, fast internet browser, and access to Kindle Owners’ Lending Library with Amazon Prime Membership. It was ready to play with straight out of the box with very little set-up required. But back in 2011, the first model of Kindle Fire lacked parental controls, and that was a cause of concern for some parents. The newer model of the device featured below is the best Kindle Fire for kids that is sure to please both, parents and children.
Kindle Fire HD 7
Kindle Fire for kids
This is the Kindle Fire HD model I recommend for kids ages 7 and up. With the new parental controls, this tablet may also be suitable for children as young as 3 years old, at parental discretion. The Kindle Fire HD tablet boasts a 7 inch HD Display, super fast internet browser, and parental controls for setting screen time and content access limits for kids – another new feature that makes Kindle Fire HD tablet more suitable for kids. Be sure to pay the extra $15 and choose the tablet without Special Offers. The Kindle Fire HD featured here has 8 GB storage, and that should be plenty of memory, especially since the apps and music you purchase can be stored on Amazon Cloud and later deleted from or added back to the device from the Cloud (free cloud storage for all Amazon content). But if keeping the cost down is not a concern and you are planning on buying a lot of movies and taking lots of pictures, you may want to purchase the 16 GB Kindle Fire HD or consider Kindle Fire HDX.

A wall charger is included in the box (some of the previous models came without a wall adapter).

Please Note that this model does not have a camera. If the camera feature is important to you, consider Kindle Fire HDX or Kindle Fire HD with 8.9″ display, starting at $229. IPAD CASE FOR KIDS at http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EF16MCK
