About Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids Edition

Made just for kids

Available on the go
Download your child's favorite videos, apps and books for access even when you don't have Wi-Fi. When an Internet connection is unavailable, your child will automatically see available content that has been downloaded to their FreeTime profile.

Easy-to-use parental controls
Manage and customize your kids' experience with up to four individual child profiles. Set bedtime curfews and employ tighter controls on screen time and content. With Learn First, you can block access to videos and games until educational targets such as reading goals are met. Parents can exit Amazon FreeTime using a passcode to get full access to all tablet features including settings, apps and Alexa in the adult profile. While in Amazon FreeTime, kids do not have access to social media, the internet or Alexa and they can't make in-app purchases without parental approval.
