Amazon Echo Dot Kids (4th Gen): They’re Lovin’ It

Okay, so this happens to be my very first post on Medium and I happen to be a tech lover. Well, what would be better than starting this journey with a kids’ special technology product right from the house of Amazon? So Amazon brought this Echo Dot Kids edition some time ago and now you can get its 4th Edition with some sophisticated changes.

As per Amazon, this is a cool looking device, shaped in the form of a tiger or a panda, and is very effective for kids, but with parental controls so that no kind of explicit content goes passing by in front of your kids.

It always stays careful. Here are some of the important things that I would really like sharing with you about this device and if you are planning a Thanksgiving or a Christmas present for your kids, this could be something really decent to put a huge smile on their face.

As aforementioned, the Kids Edition Dot is now available with either a tiger or panda design to also make them feel more like room décor. Plus, the devices will also include a 1.6-inch, front-firing speaker, producing crisp vocals and balanced bass for the best audio experience. Other than this, here are some other important features of this amazing device that make it more-than-friendly for your kids:

Echo Dot Kids will help the kids learn and grow without showing anything that is not intended for them. Your kids can ask Alexa questions all the questions they have been asking you, set a couple of alarms at different times of the day, and also get a lot of help with their homework. Parents not available to assist, it doesn’t really matter as far as the General Knowledge is concerned.

The device aims to deliver all the kid-friendly content including free Amazon Kids+ subscription (FreeTime Unlimited) for a year. It gives them access to thousands of hours of kid-friendly audible books, mind-boggling games, and educational content.

If you like it, your subscription will automatically renew every month starting at just $2.99/month (excluding the applicable tax). You can cancel the subscription any time by visiting the Amazon Parent Dashboard or getting help from our Customer Service executives.

As I was talking about the parental controls, these are very easy to manage with the help of your Alexa app. You can set daily time limits for the interaction of the kids with the device, filter out the explicit songs, and keep track of all the activities performed or questions asked on Amazon Parent Dashboard. This is not being too bossy, but caring about your kids.

The device is powered by a MediaTek SoC which is really powerful and you need not worry about its connectivity or response from Alexa. The MediaTek chipset takes care of everything.

Amazon Echo Dot 4th Gen has a 2-year worry-free guarantee. Since Amazon has all the idea that a kids’ special product is liable to accidents and slips, in case it breaks down, you can return it and they will replace it absolutely free without asking any questions.

The device promises to protect your family’s privacy, just like the other device. Amazon Echo Dot Kids Edition has multiple layers of privacy protection and controls, including a microphone off button that disconnects the microphones electronically whenever you want it.

And priced at just $60, I don’t think this is any bad a deal. So your kids would have a gala time around with the smart product, but of course, with the parents guiding them all through the course.
