However, some children are considerably more destructive than most. In such cases as these, we recommend the Amazon Fire line of tablets for kids. Like the other options on our list, these kid-friendly tablets come with a shock-resistant cover and a scratch-resistant screen protector. However, unlike the other options, the Amazon Fire Tablets include a 2-Year Worry-Free Guarantee. With this special warranty, you can send in a broken tablet and get a replacement for free. Thus, although Amazon Fire tablets cost a bit more than most other options, they include an additional safeguard against the destructive tendencies of your tot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are parental controls?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most commonly, parental control software is a way for parents to block their child from accessing the unfiltered internet, downloading apps, and viewing inappropriate content. For example, you can link your child&#8217;s account to YouTube and ensure that they will only see age-appropriate videos. You can also monitor the amount of time spent on different apps and set educational goals to balance their screen time. Different manufacturers use different parental control software, so we suggest doing a web search to find out if your tablet-of-choice&#8217;s parental controls are up to snuff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fire 7 Kids Edition Tablet, 7&#8243; Display, 16 GB, Blue, Kid-Proof Case The Fire 7 is like a dream-come-true for both kids and parents.
