Evaluation comments:
“As someone who has smart devices in almost every room of their home, I was very excited to try out the Kids version of the Echo Show by Amazon. My sons were excited to see the galaxy/cosmic design on the speaker. The set up was quite simple, and only took about 5 minutes of clicking through prompts.”
“When you ask Alexa to open Amazon Kids, it will open a page which offers the choices of: Stories, Skills, Videos, and Music. When you tap the screen, or ask Alexa to open any of those categories, it then allows you to open more subcategories to choose specific games or videos.”
“The device itself is very nice. They have great prompts that allow adults and kids to easily navigate through it. The detail they put into the cosmic background and cosmic speaker decor is very nice and attractive to most kids.”
“My sons have been able to set reading timers, chat with their siblings in other rooms, play educational games, listen to stories, take quizzes, and listen to music and much more. I’m sure we are only scratching the surface of its capabilities, and will continue to discover other fun features.”
“My younger son really likes going in the Skills category and exploring their stories. My older son enjoyed listening to music the most.”
