I love the Fire tablets. We use them for all of our kiddos (5). Each time one was ready for a good little distraction we go straight to the fire tablets. My oldest who is 10 has had her fire tablet since she was 4. They’re great for kids..so things like playing games and watching their little kid videos. This one was our most recent upgrade and it has been great so far. I love the parental controls because they offer a variety of things to control such as age range for apps, the content they can access, and time limits. I’d say these are strictly starter tablets as they do start to lag and need to be restarted from time to time to correct simple issues, however, restarting always seems to do the trick. I’d say they could be priced a little lower but they have served their purpose for us. The covers are nice and thick and protect them when they’re dropped. Not sure what material the screens are made of but you can feel the cracks when they are cracked. Ours didn’t crack from drops but from our kids stepping all over them ?

I’m very impressed with the Fire HD 8 Pro. The visual quality is amazing — bright, clear, and perfect for watching videos or playing games. The audio is loud and clear, and the touchscreen is very responsive. My son absolutely loves it! It’s fast, easy to use, and great for both learning apps and entertainment. Totally worth it for the price and quality.

Purchased for our Grandson to use while on vacation, he loved it. Kept him entertained while on the plane. Easy to install shows and games, parent controls are easy to use.

I didn’t expect much at first, but the Fire HD 8 Kids Pro turned out to be a solid little tablet. It feels built for real-world kid chaos — the kind that involves sticky fingers and sudden drops — and the case actually does its job. Setting it up was pretty painless, and the parental controls are hands-down the best part. You can manage what apps your kid uses, set limits, and even approve downloads right from your phone, which saves a lot of back-and-forth arguments.
Performance-wise, it’s not blazing fast, but it’s more than enough for streaming, reading, and the usual kid games. The screen is bright, and the battery lasts long enough that you’re not constantly hunting for a charger. My only gripe is that it can feel a bit slow to wake or switch between apps sometimes, but for the price and peace of mind, that’s easy to overlook. Overall, it’s a great kid-friendly tablet that doesn’t make parents crazy in the process.

LIGHTWEIGHT ENOUGH TO PUT IN MY PURSE WHEN TRAVELING FOR A QUICK DISTRACTION. LOCKS, YOU CAN TRACK MISSING TABLET ITS GOT AN ALARM ON IT AND A REMOTE LOCK ITS LITERALLY THE BEST FOR A KID BUT REALLY GOOD FOR ADULTS TOO IF THEY NEEDED IT

I bought the Fire HD 8 Kids Pro tablet for my 8-year-old, and it’s been one of the best purchases I’ve made. The tablet is fast, the screen looks great, and the sound quality is perfect for watching videos or playing games. I love that it comes with a kid-friendly case and a 2-year worry-free guarantee — very reassuring for parents!
What really sets it apart is the parental controls and the Amazon Kids+ content. I can manage what apps my child uses, set screen time limits, and monitor activity all from my phone. It even has a web browser with filters and allows kids to request content that I can approve.
The battery lasts all day with normal use, and the USB-C charging is quick and easy. My child uses it for educational games, YouTube Kids, and even school assignments.
If you’re looking for a durable and safe tablet for your child that still feels modern and capable, this is the one. Highly recommended!
