What do children use alexas for?

[Mallowmarshmallow]

We don't have any alexas, but I imagine my DC (8,6) would love them.

We have prime music. Could they each play music in their own rooms?

What else do similar aged children use them for?

In my experience, asking it to do endless fart noises. 🙄

Yeah, mine sometimes listen to music but mostly just getting her to do fart noises 😒🙄

Intercom. Alarm. Timer. Radio. Music. Quizzes. Asking random questions

Farts and burps (ds5)

In case uts not obvious... all of ours are in Child safe mode so you can't buy stuff through them.

Music, jokes, spellings, dictionary

Annoying Alexa. Annoying our cat. A calculator. A timer/alarm. Music. Lights.

Music, alarm as, asking her to fart, jokes, weather

My 5 year old loves telling her to play farts at the moment…

"Make fart noises" according one of my pupils when I stupidly asked 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Playing fart noises

@Dannexe house intercoms?

My dd always asks Alexa to tell her a fact.
Also as an alarm clock and plays music . Loves it

Mine turns their lifts on and off, set timers for homework, ask stupid questions and get announcements from me from downstairs.

I mean turns the lights on and off.

Yes you can drop in in a room and have a discussion or make an announcement to a particular room or to the whole house. It’s significantly reduced my screeching at the dc..

Homework… Alexa what’s 13x67

Can I ask a stupid question as an Alexa novice - what do I need to buy to have a master Alexa in the kitchen and then two for the kids rooms where they can have different music / audiobooks playing simultaneously and separate alarms etc. is that three individual Alexas or can you get a kind of bundle?

Playing favourite songs
Asking what the animal of the day is
Asking what the fact of the day is
Asking her to sing happy birthday
Making up ridiculous lengthy shopping lists with random items such as tigers and poo.

You just need three echo dots

Kids use it for: fart noises, comedy announcements, playing music (can Bluetooth from phone and use like a speaker if you don’t want Unlimited Amazon Music), cheating on homework, calling people via phones, calling your own phone when you’ve lost it🙄, endless reminders for everything, stupid songs about dogs, jokes, white noise for sleep, any digital radio station you fancy.

Personally I love the way I can just tell it my shopping list items over the week and how it stops me from being a shouty parent in our house with thick walls. It’s a good couple of years since I’ve yelled “Diiiiiinnnnneeeerrrr” five times at the top of my voice.

I also appreciate being able to control volume etc in all the Alexas from the app on my phone. And we all love Alexa plug sockets and the party light bulbs.

i don’t work for Amazon, promise.

My little minx asks Alexa for the answers to her maths homework 😳
Caught her in the act tonight the little monster 🤣 ( and I thought I was raising the next carol vorderman )

Is 4 too young for an Alexa?
