Our family loves our Alexa devices, and we have one in practically every room, so this latest one really caught my eye. It's the new Echo Show 5 Kids, making it the first Echo Show specifically designed for the younger members of the family to use. It's just gone on pre-order now for £99.99 with free delivery, ready for the May 31st launch later this month.
Echo Show 5 Kids
I already have an Echo Show next to my desk to help me keep organised, tell me the weather, set reminders, play music and all sorts of other things, but this new one has special features to make it tailored for children, giving peace of mind for parents.
Kids can ask Alexa to play videos and music, help with homework, read a bedtime story, make video calls to approved contacts and more so they can learn and play. They can also stream songs from Amazon Music, Apple Music and Spotify.
It has easy-to-use parental controls, and Alexa will automatically give kid-friendly responses and can filter songs with explicit lyrics. You can also set daily time limits and review activity in the Amazon Parent Dashboard. It also has multiple layers of privacy controls, so you can electronically disconnect the microphones and camera with the press of a button, as well as slide the built-in cover to close the camera.
1 year of Amazon Kids+ is also included, so you get a digital subscription designed for kids aged 3–12 with thousands of ad-free, kid-friendly songs, videos, Audible books, Alexa skills and more.
Kids can help take charge of their routines with Alexa by setting their own alarms, turning off compatible smart lights, and calling parent-approved friends and family so it's great for growing independence.
It also has a 2-year worry-free guarantee, so that if it breaks you can return it and Amazon will replace if for free, which is very reassuring when little kids are involved!
Free delivery is included as this is over the £25 minimum spend, and if you order now it will be dispatched to you on the launch date of 31st May 2023. There's also a pre-order price guarantee so if the price drops before the launch date you'll only pay the lowest price.
