Love the design and functionalities
The media could not be loaded. I recently got the Amazon Echo Dot Kids in the adorable owl design, and it has quickly become a favourite in our household! The design is not only cute but also makes it a fun addition to my child's room. It’s incredibly user-friendly, allowing my 6-year-old to easily interact with it.The features are fantastic, she loves asking it questions, playing music, and listening to stories. The Amazon Kids parental controls give me peace of mind, allowing me to manage what content she can access. I also appreciate the kid-friendly responses and games that keep her entertained and engaged.Overall, the Amazon Echo Dot Kids is a wonderful blend of fun and functionality, making it an excellent choice for young children! It's a great first step into the digital world, blending entertainment with educational opportunities!

A Big Hit
This speaker is so good for my kids.I like the neat size of it, which can be placed pretty much anywhere with a flat surface.It’s easy to use and is suitably functional for even my 3yr old to use on his own.I appreciate the safety features, routines, music, stories & more all tailored for kids.I use the routines to gently coax the kids from their beds, help them prepare for transitions, focus on tasks, use the timer for tasks, tell them when to get ready and go to bed.My kids have a lot of fun using their speaker, having their own little dance parties, asking questions, playing games and requesting a story from it, every night at bedtime.Very good value for money and is an integral part of our home

Tiny Dragon, Big Fun
The Echo Dot Kids (5th Gen, 2022) in Dragon design is like having a mini, tech-savvy dragon as your kid’s new best friend. This little speaker is packed with personality, and Alexa’s ready to answer all those curious questions kids love to throw out.Parental controls are a lifesaver here, letting you manage what your child can access. It’s designed with kids in mind, so it's durable enough to survive a few tumbles. The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity mean it can stream their favorite songs, stories, and more, keeping them entertained for hours.On the downside, Alexa might sometimes misunderstand those adorable but slightly garbled requests, leading to some funny but unhelpful responses. Overall, it’s a fun, engaging addition to a kid's room that balances entertainment and safety. 4 stars, because even a dragon has room for improvement.

Great for the kids. But also for general use.
I waited for this to come on the Black Friday deals and was well pleased with the price! I often sit in the back room so needed a bit of music, plus when the Grandkids call around , they take over the back room, so they can have their own entertainment as this also came with a years free ‘Kids Plus’ subscription which offers Audio stories, games and kids songs.plus it look cute and, Brilliant !

Cute, and Great Sound Quality
Purchased for my wife, who loves him. Especially sat in his little nest accessory (which is nice, but should be half the price!). For the size, great sound quality.
