Living in a digital age means we have access to incredible technology. Tablets are very popular with their big screens (compared to a cell phone), access to wi-fi, built in cameras, and so much more. If you are in the market for a tablet you may want to consider a Kindle Fire.
5 Reasons to Own a Kindle Fire
The Kindle Fire price point is affordable. At $49.99 and up it is a price that many families can afford.
Amazon Underground is an app store that has thousands of dollars worth of apps that are actually free. With Amazon Underground you will find 100% free versions of popular titles like Frozen Free Fall, Star Wars Rebels: Recon Missions, OfficeSuite Professional 8, Goat Simulator, Angry Birds Slingshot Stella and many more.
You have up to seven hours or reading, surfing the web, watching videos, and listening to music before you need to recharge.
If you are an Amazon Prime member you have access to more than 38 million movies, TV shows, songs, books, apps and games on your Kindle Fire.
In November I attended a Cool Mom Picks event in Atlanta and was able to talk to Amazon representatives in person. I learned about the Amazon Kindle Fire Kids Edition and fell in love with the two-year worry-free guarantee which allows you to return the device if anything at all happens, no questions asked. The example they gave was a two year old throwing the tablet in the bathtub….because these things DO happen! This device comes with a free year of Amazon Free Time Unlimited which has more than 10,000 kid friendly books, apps, and games.
The coolest part of Amazon FreeTime is the parental controls which allow you to set goals (like 30 minutes of reading before the child can play an app), limiting screen time (it turns off after the programed number of minutes are over), and more.
The Amazon Fire Kids Edition is $89.99 versus the $49.99 Kindle Fire price. But that two year warranty……and all the features may make it worth the price difference if you plan on using this device with children.
I was gifted a Kindle Fire at the event. Our family does not need this device…..we have two Kindle Paperwhites (because we love them that one and because one wasn’t enough)…and different tablets. So instead of opening this gift….I am regifting it to one lucky Coupons Are Great winner.
