The best tablets for kids in 2024: tested by experts and recommended by parents

For older kids (ages 6-12), Amazon’s new Fire HD 10 Kids Pro tablet is available. New in this generation is 25% faster speed, higher quality 5-megapixel cameras and 13 hours of battery life instead of 12 hours.

With a 10.1-inch display, you get a larger screen without significantly increasing the overall cost. Resolution is better than previous generations, with a brighter Full HD 1080p display. The set includes a protective case, a two-year hassle-free warranty and a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+.

It comes with a slim, child-resistant design and pre-set age filters for children ages 6-12. Even with all these improvements, this model is still $10 cheaper than the previous generation at $190.

Review: This new tablet redefines what a tablet can do for kids

ZDNET writer Maria Diaz took a look at the new Amazon Fire HD 10 Kids Pro tablet and was “pleasantly surprised” by its smooth performance.

“The Fire HD 10 Kids Pro proved to be significantly faster than both generations of Fire HD 8 Kids tablets we have, and since the older ones were handed down to a four-year-old and a two-year-old, this wasn’t an issue though, the seven-year-old and new owner of the Fire HD 10 Kids Pro definitely noticed the difference” – she wrote.

In a Best Buy review, one customer noted, “Once you learn how to use Amazon Kids to download apps, it works great. My five year old loves it. It’s quite durable considering it has a thinner case than the old version.”
