Excellent for kids!
I gave this to my nephew for his 5th birthday to put in his room (his parents were cool with it because he uses theirs to play music and impress his friends). It works really well and the way they made it for kids was high quality (he loved dinosaurs). The sound quality was great as you’d expect from a standard Alexa unit and it was easy to control. So a 5 years old was able to play songs he likes and ask questions like ‘do they put grapes in grape soda?’, but not able to buy 2000 worth of Minecraft stuff without his parents knowing.

Great for families
The Amazon Echo Dot Kids is fantastic for my child. It’s easy to use, has kid-friendly content, and the parental controls give me peace of mind. The sound quality is surprisingly good for its size, and it keeps my child entertained and learning. Definitely a great purchase for families!

Absolutely Adorable and Highly suited for children
Could this be any cuter?! Firstly, it's an Amazon brand so you know the quality is going to be top tier, Secondly, how cute is this!? My daughter loves owls and was so excited after opening this gift for her birthday. I didn't even know this product existed until looking for a birthday gift. This plays music for her, she's changed the voice and name, she can ask this age appropriate questions, and a year subscription to Amazon kids which is also available for my children's tablets. Absolutely great purchase and we love the Owl!

Problems Playing Amazon Music
UPDATE: Amazon Support reached out, and after disabling Spotify from the Alexa app (rather than just removing permissions from the Kids app), we can now play Amazon Music. Odd bug, and frustrating it took this long to figure it out, butIt doesn't allow access to Amazon Music, even if I give parental permission through the Kids app. It only wants to play music through Spotify, which I don't want to subscribe to. It's incredibly frustrating. Shouldn't Amazon devices connect well with Amazon services? Right now it's just a fancy weather announcer. Really disappointed.
