SAVE $30: As of Aug. 27, the Kindle Kids is down to just $99.99 at Amazon from $129.99. That’s 23% in savings and just $5 away from its record-low price.
The newly released Kindle Colorsoft Kids just got its first discount ever. But even on sale for $30 off, it’s a hard price to justify for an e-reader for kids — especially since the basic Kindle Kids is on sale for under $100.
As of Aug. 27, you can grab the Kindle Kids on sale at Amazon for only $99.99. That’s $30 (or 23%) in savings, and only $5 away from its best price ever. For what it’s worth, it’s also $140 cheaper than the Colorsoft Kids.
The 2024 Kindle Kids is a lightweight and compact reading device, featuring a six-inch, glare-free 300 ppi display that’s 25 percent brighter than its predecessor. It offers adjustable front light and dark mode for effortless reading in any light, 16GB of storage to hold thousands of books, and a battery that can last up to six weeks per charge. Its one downfall is that it’s not waterproof (like our favorite e-reader for kids, the Paperwhite Kids). However, the protective case and Amazon’s two-year worry-free guarantee offer a little peace of mind on that front. If it breaks, they’ll replace it for free.

What we really love about the Kindle Kids is that it’s a distraction-free device that doesn’t break the bank. It doesn’t have ads, notifications, or the temptation of games and videos. It’s packed only with kid-friendly books, making it screen time you can feel good about. With built-in parental controls and a six-month free subscription to Amazon Kids+, this compact e-reader can help kiddos build healthy reading habits and (finally) get off of YouTube.
