Kindle for Kids
Kindle for Kids lets you create a personalised experience for up to four children, giving you
complete control over what content each child can access. Kids earn achievements that help
them keep track of their personal reading accomplishments. Access to the Kindle Store, the
Experimental Web Browser, Goodreads and Wikipedia is automatically blocked. Children can
only read books that you have added to their library.
Setting up Kindle for Kids
Tap the Kindle for Kids item on the Home screen to get started. You will be prompted to set
a Parental Controls password if you do not already have one. To create a profile for your child,
enter your child’s first name, date of birth and gender. An introduction page will display.
Next, a list of the titles in your Kindle Library displays. Tap the checkbox next to an item’s
title to add it to your child’s Kindle for Kids library, then tap OK. To add or remove books
from your child’s reading list later, tap the profile icon next to your child’s name on the
Kindle for Kids main screen, then select Library.
