Save over 40 percent: Amazon Kindle Kids edition

Originally $110, the Kindle Kids edition is now only $65, two-year worry-free guarantee included (always essential with devices meant for little ones). Plus, if you buy two, you can use the promo code “2PACK” to save an additional $20. 

Lots of parents want to limit gaming time and keep kids off the web. The Kindle Kids is just for reading — no distractions here. With a 6-inch glare free screen, and a battery that can stay juiced for weeks, the Kindle Kids is easy to carry and enjoy outdoors.

The deal includes a free year of Amazon Kids+ which gives eager readers access to the entire Harry Potter series and the first book from the Artemis Fowl series, among many other things. Also included is a kid-friendly cover in one of four options (blue, pink, rainbow birds or space station).

The Kindle Kids edition has a Parent Dashboard where caretakers can manage content, set educational goals, view reading progress and adjust age filters. One reviewer who got the Kindle Kids for her grandson reported: “He does like to read but I have been hoping that [this] would widen his interest into new books. Mission accomplished.”$65 $110 at Amazon
