The all-new Amazon Echo Dot Kids Edition has been unveiled by the eCommerce company as a new device for children that will enable them to access an array of appropriate content using only their voice. Coming with a one-year subscription to Amazon FreeTime Unlimited, the speaker will offer stories, songs, books and other content that is all suitable for kids to access on their own. Users can also play games and enhance their skills using Amazon Alexa to support development even when they are enjoying some free time on their own.
The all-new Amazon Echo Dot Kids Edition is available now for pre-order from the company at an introductory price of $49.99, which will raise to $69.99 when it's released on June 26.
