Waste of money
This thing has frustrated me to no end. She rarely understand what is being asked. When trying to play videos that they provide, I keep getting an error message. It was playing videos fine, and now every one is an error. I can feel the rage pouring out of my chest. I'm very familiar with Amazon products, and this one is awful.

Cute, nice size and pretty good features, but drops calls unexpectedly
The media could not be loaded. The connectivity is the biggest issue that is unreliable. Several dropped calls randomly and the Echo Show is less than 10 feet from the main Amazon router. Additionally, I reset the network and internet settings 5 times now and it still has dropped calls. The Echo Show is small enough to fit nicely on desk or table and can still see the caller and they see enough through video phone calls just fine. You can add fun backgrounds and images during the call. Other person needs to have Alexa app downloaded onto their cell phone, or have another Amazon enabled device. The value was great because huge discount on Prime Day. The kids echo show features some additional Amazon Kids spp features such as changing to different kids friendly voices and other games and shows that are age level appropriate. The kids mode blocks outgoing calls except to parents in the same shared household. The features of the alarms and reminders is fantastic and I love adding the wallpaper and different customized routines and how it pairs easily with other Amazon devices in my place. I like the drop in feature as a small extra security feature.

Save your money
Save your money and just buy any of the other ones and set them to kids mode. I purchased this one 2x for my kids room. First one was water damaged that they tried to sell me and the second one freezes with every video or game we try to play. It doesn't listen well (like most kids 😆) and it doesn't answer everything like the regular echo does.The video lags, freezes, picture quality is very good when it works and volume is pretty decent. Drop in feature is great, that's about all that works without issue.It's a very good looking piece but looks are deceiving because it doesn't function well at all. I've reset it numerous times, removed to cord as well and still have the circling when trying anything strenuous with this device.In my general opinion, the kids one isn't worth it. Just get the regular one and change it to kids mode. This was a total waste of money and wish I had taken the sign when the first water damaged item arrived. Will never purchase a kids Echo again even if they upgrade it.

Mi mejor amiga para las rutinas de mi hogar
Es mi mejor amiga y la de mis hijos, la pidieron de regalo de navidad y a sido una gran ayuda para las rutinas de mis niños, los despierta por las mañanas y enciende las luces para ellos, los manda a dormir por las noches y ambienta la habitación para que se preparen para dormir, puedo enviar comunicados a la hora de comida o si necesito llamarlos, toda las mamá deberían de tener al menos una en casa, el tamaño fue el adecuado para la habitación de mis hijos y el color Les encantó y pareció divertido.

The Smart Screen I Didn’t Know We Needed, Kid-Friendly, Mom-Approved
I got the Echo Show 5 Kids thinking it would just be a cute gadget, but it’s honestly become a little lifesaver in our home. My kids use it for everything — listening to music, asking questions, checking the weather, setting timers during homeschool, and even calling grandma.The parental controls are easy to set up, and I love that the whole experience is kid-centered without being overstimulating. It’s educational, safe, and gives them a little independence in a tech world I can trust.Also, the size is perfect — it fits neatly on their desk or nightstand, and the voice recognition is surprisingly good. This is one of those smart-home purchases that actually made life easier.If you’re a busy parent who wants your kids to have access to tech in a safe, contained way, this is it. Plus, it’s cute.
