Parents searching for the perfect Christmas present have just been handed a massive saving, as Amazon slashes the price of its popular Fire HD 8 Kids tablet by a staggering 57% for its Black Friday sale.
The newest generation device, usually retailing for £149.99, is now available for an incredible £64.99. This dramatic price cut makes the educational gadget one of the standout deals for families this festive season.
What Makes This Kids' Tablet a Standout Buy?
This isn't just any tablet; it's designed specifically with children and parental peace of mind at its core. The package includes a robust, kid-proof case, with the standard blue option available at the £64.99 price point. For those wanting something extra special, a princess-themed case can be had for £74.99, or a Peppa Pig case for £109.99.
Shoppers have praised the tablet's durability, with many confirming it can withstand being "thrown about" by energetic youngsters. Furthermore, the 13-hour battery life has been highlighted by customers as "better than expected," ensuring long-lasting entertainment and learning.
Educational Content and Parental Controls
A significant part of the bundle's value is the inclusion of a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+. This service provides unlimited, ad-free access to a vast library of age-appropriate books, games, videos, and educational applications.
The content is curated to both entertain and educate, featuring STEM games and books in different languages. While Amazon suggests the tablet is for children aged 3-7, reviewers note that older kids, up to around nine years old, can also enjoy it.
For parents, the tablet offers easy-to-use parental controls. These allow you to set daily time limits, review your child's activity, and filter content to prioritise educational material. One happy customer noted their "son gets his screen time on educational things," turning screen time into a productive activity.
Worry-Free Guarantee and Subscription Details
Amazon backs the product with a two-year worry-free guarantee, promising to replace the tablet if it breaks, no questions asked. After the first year, the Amazon Kids+ subscription automatically renews at £4.99 per month, but this can be cancelled at any time.
For those seeking an alternative, the article mentions Debenhams is selling a Havendro Android Tablet for kids for £53.99, though it does not include a free subscription service.
With five-star reviews praising its improved speed, fast charging, and the "peace of mind" its safety features provide, the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids tablet represents a top-tier, budget-friendly tech gift this Christmas.
