Amazon’s Kindle version for kids is pretty good, if you like the big A that is.

I’ll second that. They have a phenomenal warranty on them. Do anything to break it and they’ll replace it for 2 years. We’ve had 2 cracked screens and a worn out usb port and they have always replaced them quickly with no questions asked. All of my kids have one, their ages range from 4 to 11 and it suits all of their needs

Good point; Amazon’s customer service is the best I’ve ever seen, anywhere. That always helps (me).

An RCA tablet will crap out quickly. I’d give it no longer than a few months before it goes into a boot loop. Kindle is excellent and durable, my little one has chucked it at the wall hundreds of times. How the screen hasn’t cracked is beyond me. I hate their app store though. Some apps can be sideloaded but lately it seems like more often than not they won’t work.

There is a way to put the google App Store on the kindle.

There is but quite a few apps my kids wanted I sideloaded and the framework won’t support them. Before practically everything worked but that could just be because they were newer games.

Don’t know about the kids tablets, but honestly my 2yo has played with my tablets and mommy’s tablet since she was 6mnths old.
But honestly only difference between mommies tablet and a kids tablet that I see is the kids tablet comes with kids apps installed that can be downloaded from the play store…
Been thinking about getting my 2yo an iPad…

But, I wish they existed when I was a kid! All I had was a tennis ball. Named it Ollie. Cried when the dog ate it.

you are right , they are limited to how much time and what kind of games etc , we are a very active family even on rainy days we find things to do together , however my 6 and 5 year old live with their mother 50pct of the time so they have video games and things there

My main concern is that they will benefit more from your interaction, F tablets and Phones…
