The days of poring through a library’s shelves for the perfect book or learning tool for kids are quickly becoming a distant memory as more parents give their children access to Amazon’s kid-friendly Kindle. Amazon’s Kindle is currently nearly 30 percent off, making it an ideal choice for parents looking for a way to give their children a beneficial, interactive way to consume age-appropriate content.
The Kindle is much different from its paper-laden predecessor in that it’s a small, portable device that kids can take wherever they go. Long car rides, a doctor’s office, or a stay in the hospital don’t mean the end of a child’s reading journey, it just means they have a different way to pursue their favorite books. The Kindle includes character profiles, a search bar, and pre-downloaded content that’s appropriate for all age levels, as well as offers an online library full of more books to explore on a wi-fi connection.
The Kindle’s interface also makes it a great choice for struggling readers and those with dyslexia or other language-related learning disabilities. Special fonts, audio accompaniments, and additional text-to-speech capabilities can give any child the ability to enjoy books—and other educational materials—without all of the anxiety and pressure.
But the Kindle isn’t only meant for use as a learning tool; many children now use the device for games, video streaming, or to access older movies and television shows. They can also access and download other books, magazines, and even comics to keep them entertained on long car rides or international vacation.
Parents can rest assured that their children’s safety is assured while they’re using a Kindle. Content can be easily restricted, tucked behind age-appropriate passwords, and monitored to ensure that kids don’t get exposed to materials that their parents wouldn’t approve of. Kids can also easily browse content through the platform that’s also accepted by their teachers or other educational professionals.
Finally, Amazon’s Kid-Friendly Kindle is also very cost effective. At nearly 30 percent off its original price, parents can put the cost of the Kindle towards educational materials, books, or even games. The Kindle can be a great way to encourage a love of reading within children and offers a variety of additional benefits that parents and educators will love, such as adjustable screen brightness, audio playback and other features.
So why not give your child their own Kindle for upcoming holiday or their next birthday? With the Kindle’s current sale, it’s the perfect time to give your little one their own reading adventure and experience a different, interactive way of learning.
