1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

We watched Barbie Princess Charm School. To be fair I didn't really like this one but my daughter loved it. I suppose it taps into a little girls desire to be a princess.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Just Add Magic - is there going to be another series soon?
Some of the films.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

The fact that we can watch things without having to pay extra.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

There are lots of programmes on there for younger children that will be useful as my baby gets older.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

We have watched just Add Magic. My daughter loves it. I think because of the magic element.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I love my Amazon prime membership for the next day delivery option and that there is no minimum spend. If a minimum spend per order was imposed I would cancel my membership as it wouldn't be useful any more.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

Annedroids - a series about a really clever, sciency girl who makes her own AI robots out of a junkyard. It's great to see a programme that has such a strong, brainy female lead!

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

TV box sets - like Annedroids above, My Little Pony, the dreaded Winx (can't stand those anorexic fairies, but DD adores them!). We also like watching movies and have downloaded (and purchased!) quite a few for long haul flight entertainment on tablets. It's also great that they can watch all these on the Big TV as we have a Fire Stick - best invention ever - so I can still MN while she's watching! Before, we used the laptop for streaming so I was stuck watching too.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

There are hours and hours of entertainment - not just for DD, but for us all. I love that there are some really awesome old-school sets that DH and I can rewatch together - we're currently on S4 of X=Files and it's just as fab as I remember! The Amazon Originals series are also worth a watch - I loved the Man in the High Castle, and we have a few more on our list for when we're tired of Mulder & Scully.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

Once you've paid your Prime membership fee, that's it - no more fuss. We've taught DD how to search only for things with the Prime banner in the corner, so she doesn't click on anything that is pay per view, and we're all happy!

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

The first two are "a bit babyish, Mummy!" (my 7yo verbatim) but she did enjoy Just Add Magic as he loves to cook. We watched the pilot, ages ago, and she was really looking forward to watching the rest and now wants a magic cookbook for Christmas. Thanks Amazon!

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

It's essential - I will prioritise it over many other household expenses. I sue it every day - it's a godsend for last minute birthday presents, I did ALL the Xmas shopping last year through Amazon, we have watched hours and hours of great TV. However the biggest and most unexpected bonus, for me, has been Prime Music. What a fab invention! I have the app on my phone and all the CDs I've bought through Amazon are automatically on there - incredible! Plus, If I'm connected to the Wifi I can stream some really amazing music through the Prime Library - I have it on all the time now and I absolutely love it. I'd renew just for this alone. It's brilliant!

So, in summary, the £79 fee seems like a lot but for the free delivery, plus TV shoes, movies, and an endless supply of awesome music - it's worth every penny.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

We watched Paddington..... for the fourth time!! The boys loved it and it was the type of film that even I could happily watch again.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazon Prime Video and why?

They enjoy going through different series. The older one watched all of icarly and worked his way through the series. What was interesting was that his younger brother liked the thought of having something of his own, so he worked his way through Peppa Pig.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

It's so jam packed full of amazing content...series, movies, documentaries, music and educational pieces. Our favourites as voted for by all of us are the family movies.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

I can use my parental controls of all of the devices linked to the Amazon services. They also keep updating the content and it's easy to see whats been added.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

They have watched them all, Tumbleleaf was enjoyed more by my youngest and he really liked the engaging storylines and I think that it was well placed because it was well written but didn't over stimulate him, its got a delicate quality to it.
Wishenpoof! was lovely but a bit young for my two boys at 7 and 10. Interactive and exactly right for when they were smaller. Loads to learn and a good programme to feel safe with them watching.
Just Add Magic is perfectly suited to my kids, its cool because it is more in line with their peers and is more like a modern day adventure series that really draws the youngsters in.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

Amazon Prime Video is what I use constantly and my children get so much use out of it that I would really not want to be without it.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

Blue Mountain Mystery (Thomas the Tank Engine). My DS3 is a huge Thomas fan. We love being able to access Thomas films for him from our TV, iPads and phones.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Any Thomas the tank stuff, Peppa Pig, Trap Door

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

There aren't ad breaks every ten minutes!! Seriously, I love this. Couldn't stand the run up to Christmas when our DC had access to Sky TV.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

Our DC like being able to pick what they want to watch, when they want to watch it. There's a decent selection of programs for the kids and for us too.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

We haven't seen any of the Amazon Prime originals series yet. Like the look of Tumbleleaf though.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I rely on our prime membership. It's great for the video stuff but we also really like the Amazon music playlists and being able to have next day delivery on loads of items is invaluable. Worth every penny imo.

1. What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

We tend to watch films more than anything else. During the last week we've watched Despicable Me, Shaun the Sheep and Paddington. We like the fact that there's always something new being added so there's new choices. Plus some things disappear too. I like the fact that we can buy a film and gave it readily available via the app.

2. What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Films more than anything else. However they do both enjoy an ironic view of Peppa Pig. They're 9 and 13 but we do sometimes sit down and laugh at their old favourite episodes.

3. What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

The fact that things are added often. The fact that we can buy a film and view it anywhere. The excitement when an old favourite - 101 Dalmatians recently - appears and we can watch it unexpectedly.

4. What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

All of the above. It's a great addition to prime and it's a real bargain. Lots of series on there too - I've recently watched the whole of Downton Abbey - although my ds's groan about that!

5. Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

Haven't watched any of these

6. Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I'd hate to be without prime now. Not just the video but the music. The one day delivery. Just all of it really. I would not want to give my prime membership up now.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?
Pacific Rim. It's not the sort of movie that I would think to buy (or switch on if on freeview) however my Son saw the thumbnail and requested it. Probably a bit old for him but he loved the action scenes and is now desperate for a jaeger robot.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?
The SnowQueen, Wishenpoof and Tom and Jerry cartoons. They are allowed to choose from whatever is included free so it is usually whichever thumbnail looks appealing. The above three have been watched a number of times though as they seem to have taken a shine to them.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
We get to choose something that we otherwise would probably never watch. Especially shows such as Bosch as it is an Amazon Original. Would have loved it if Amazon had picked up Hannibal season 4 after it was dropped from freeview.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?
For the kids shows it can also be used as a treat to get them to behave! Also having thumbnail pictures on show makes it easier for the kids to select what they want without me reading everything out to them.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?
Wishenpoof and Tumbleleaf. They love Wishenpoof and it was nice to have a female character following a variety of storylines. Unlike many annoyingly gender stereotypical kids shows. Bosch was great for the adults and hope we get to see a season 3.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?
Within the membership we only use the delivery and free tv/movie options so not sure if there is anything else included. Initially I needed some items delivered immediately and decided to go ahead and try Amazon Prime for a year to see what it was like. We never intended to purchase items to view, but instead stick to whatever was included within the membership. A few of the movies which drew us in were later removed (Frozen and Toy Story 2&3 to name a few) and I do think that there should be more included - especially when some of the shows are very old kids cartoons which no-one would bother to sell on dvd anymore. (So seems a bit grabby to charge extra). Also as we're quite happy to have hard copies of movies and Tv shows if it works out cheaper we have ended up doing so on the two occasions we have thought to purchase something on Amazon Prime instant video. (Though one hard copy was from Amazon and delivered next day!)
Pretty happy so far but we'll wait to see what programs and movies are added over the year to work out whether we'll continue next year as the speedy delivery alone would not be enough to make us renew.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?
Fanboy and chum chum. They love it and find it hilarious. I don't have a clue what is going on.
2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?
My 4 year old loves creative galaxy because she loves craft, she has watched every episode several times over the past couple of years. My 7 year old loves spongebob, fanboy, teen titans.
3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
Ease of use, variety, Amazon originals.
4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?
Easy for kids to access and choose their episodes.
5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?
We've watched all the above. Tumble leaf was enjoyed by my 4 year old, I liked the calm feeling of it. Just add magic was a bit old for them.
6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why? It's great for disorganised, impatient people like us.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?
Just Add Magic is a real favourite in our house, we love how realistic the magic is and love the stories.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?
They love having access to free movies, especially as there is lots of choice from classics to modern and even some movies we wouldn't have watched if they hadn't been offered on Prime.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
It's easy to access from the PS4, the kids don't need help to select videos. There's lots of choice and the choices are refreshed regularly.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?
It's very easy to use, and I enjoy being able to watch the latest movies on a Saturday night as well as the occasional chick flick when my husband is away. My kids love snuggling down on the sofa to watch a movie too.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?
Just Add Magic is a real favourite with my 8 year old DD and I know that as its Amazon it will be suitable for her. My DS prefers the movies like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They both agree that the ease of access and lots of choice and variety is great.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?
We use our Prime membership lots for Amazon orders and at Christmas it's a godsend! I use it for last minute gifts and things for work ( in a school) too! Recently I have been amazed at the variety of products you can buy on Amazon so I'll be using my Prime Membership a lot more!

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

We watched ninjago, my son really enjoys all of the Lego series

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

My daughter loves my little pony. There are some good films on there for cinema night too.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

The choice is good and it's easy to find something to watch.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

The huge choice, we can always find something to watch

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

We're just starting just add magic which looks like it's going to be a hit in this house

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I love the music streaming, particularly the playlists. And I use the next day delivery a lot

1. Megamind - really funny, have watched it 5 times already.

1. Children enjoy watching animated films and series.

1. Favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video is that it is instantaneous with a great choice.

1. The great choice and quality, I can put programmes in the watchlist safe in the knowledge that they won't see anything they shouldnt.

1. Morris and the cow, Little awesome, Danger eggs they appeal to the children as they are sillly and entertaining.

1. Amazon Prime is very important. Next day free delivery plus Sundays, its hard to do browsing and shopping with little ones so this is great. Also music playlists for when you don't want TV.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it? We watched the whole season of Just Add Magic in the space of a week. We all enjoyed it equally, and it prompted much conversation between myself, my 3 year old and 6 year old.
2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?
They adore Wishenpoof, Lego Friends, Just Add Magic, and - of course - Peppa Pig. The programmes always keep them captivated and are of a high quality. They don't have to deal with advertising and can watch eisodes in sequence.
3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video? No advertising and autoplay on next episodes.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family? An excellent variety and wide selection of programming included in the package. There really is something for everyone - without a great deal of poor programmes to bulk out the selection like some other providers.
5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them? The girls have watched all 3 of these series and enjoyed each of them - their favourite was Just Add Magic. They loved the characters, the storyline and it made a nice change from watching animated programmes.
6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why? I have found our membership invaluable this year.We regularly use the video and music features at home and have backed up our precious files using the drive space. It is definitely a service that we will be sticking with for the foreseeable future. Incidentally - it is lucky that I have recently finished watching all 5 seasons of Haven, as my girls had been limited in their watching time while I was watching it!

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?
My 9 year old and 16 year old daughters and I watched the The Snow Queen and all enjoyed it. As my 9 year old is one of the only children I know who really doesn’t like Frozen, I wanted her to see the original on which Frozen was based and she really enjoyed The Snow Queen, as did my older daughter and I.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on AmazonPrime Video and why?
We often download programmes onto my 9 year old daughter’s Kindle Fire so that she has something to keep her entertained on long journeys. We often download a film for her but she also likes to keep up to date with House of Magic and Scooby-Do (both films and separate episodes).

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
I find it easy to find out what the suitable age range of each programme / film is and all the programmes are easy to download to view offline.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?
Because I have children with a large age difference (eldest three are 20, 18 & 16 and youngest is 9), I find Amazon Prime Video appealing as there are always programmes to suit each age.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?
My 9 year old regularly watches Just add Magic and she absolutely loves the main character, Kelly Quinn, and the adventures she gets up to with her best friends.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?
I originally signed up to Amazon Prime as I prefer to pay a monthly payment to receive goods I order the following day. However, since I joined up, I have made use of the Amazon Prime Video facility more and more frequently and I now also use the Amazon Music app. Also, the other benefit is that my husband and some of my children can also use all the facilities.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?
Monsters University and Peppa Pig, they have watched them many times before but still enjoy them.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?
Children's movies and Peppa Pig.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
The wide variety of films that are included in the whole package rather than having to pay extra. I mostly use it for my own use though without the children for programs such as Vikings and Preacher.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?
It has a good variety of films, however we tend to use NowTV for our day to day watching as it is simple and easy to use on our TV. We use Prime for films or programs we can't find elsewhere.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?
No we haven't watched these, they seem to like watching things that they already know and like.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?
I do use the 1 day delivery but would not be worried if it was not a part of Video, in fact I would be happier to pay less for just a Video service. I am a student so only pay £39 a year which is good value, I wouldn't be happy to pay more than this though.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

We watched The Secret Garden film - we liked it because it was a book I loved as a child and DD has just read it. I didn't know there was a film of it until I flicked through the available films.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Mainly films, as she isn't familiar with the TV programmes yet as we are new to Prime.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

Ease of use, the PIN protection, quick to download.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

Good range of tv programmes and films, however I am a bit disappointed that a lot of the more appealing stuff is not free with Prime. If I had known so much cost extra I probably wouldn't have been so keen to sign up. A lot of the stuff that is free is quite old. DD is happy with this at the moment but I can see it being a problem as she gets older.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

DD hasn't been keen to watch the Amazon Original stuff because she isn't familiar with it. I expect this will change as she gets more used to it.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I really like Prime, we are new to it and love the music and free next day delivery. However, I thought the Prime Video would be better than it is. I think it is hard to find things on it, and I am fed up of seeing so much that costs extra. We will probably keep Prime for reasons other than the video.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

The last thing we watched together was Paddington. We liked that such a new movie was available on Prime so soon. The movie itself was funny with plenty of slapstick humour for the aimed at audience.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

They enjoy watching lots of different things including Lego Friends and Just Add Magic - dd2 (8) mostly watches on her Kindle Fire

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

That you can watch it on more than one device e.g. I dd1 can watch from the app on her xbox and dd2 can watch in her kindle fire.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

Lots to choose from, up to date database of TV shows and movies - we can always find something that we want to watch.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

They loved Just Add Magic - dd2 watched them over the course of a weekend. Dd2 (8) says that she liked how the found the book and started to make the spells. She liked the cast especially the character of Darby.

We have not watched any of the other named Originals as they are aimed at younger children.

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I don't have full Prime membership as I don't require it but I do pay for Prime Video because it is a quality service and we all enjoy it. There is something for everyone.

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

Gnomeo and Juliet. Great family movie for a wet weekend.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Box sets of cartoons not available on other platforms. Such as Scooby Doo and Team Umizoomi.

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

Outlander!

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

We are able to stream in every room using the fire stick, ipad and sony blu ray player. The download function on the app is great for going on journeys.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

We haven't watched any yet

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

Next day delivery is great along with amazon music app for my phone. The selection of movies and tv shows has declined of late so we have also subscribed to now tv. A few years ago this would not have been the case.

We already have Amazon Prime. I use it for kids TV when I'm cooking dinner, mainly Fireman Sam episodes and Peppa Pig. I like the fact that it automatically rolls over to the next episode, makes life easier with short kids programs.
Dh uses it for films/grown up TV programs, me less so.

I like the fact it's easy to get into from our TV and is fairly quick to load etc.

In terms of using it on the move - we don't really - it's all done through the TV or computer in our house.

We haven't watched any of the Amazon Prime kids programs mentioned above.

In terms of other benefits, we like the free delivery that comes with Amazon Prime and there are occasionally really good special offers just for Prime members (though we were gutted to miss out on the recent free baby box offer, our LO arrived a couple of weeks ago!).

1.What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

"All grown up" the new rugrats. I liked reminiscing about rugrats when I was a kid! I love that there are no adverts. We used to stick to BBC channels before Prime so they've loved having more choice.

2.What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

Ben and Holly has been a real hit (wed not seen it before as I prefer advert free channels!) Wishenpoof is another favourite as well as accessing iplayer and all the movies! They like being able to use the search button and find programmes themselves as well as scrolling through previously watched section. They also like that it finishes where they've left off, especially if I've made them come and sit down for dinner/go to school they can finish later!!

3.What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?

No adverts.

4.What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

No adverts is the main appeal but also ease of use and ability to watch on demand.

5.Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

They really like Wishenpoof - they sing the jingle a lot!

6.Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

I mainly got Amazon Prime for the next day delivery and didn't think I'd be fussed about the tv/video but it's been great kids have loved it and I've been happy with what they're watching so we're likely to keep it on. Made for easy movie nights!

1. What was the last thing you watched with your kids on Amazon Prime Video and what did you like about it?

I don't watch much TV myself, but I watch alongside my children - most recently we watched Lego Ninjago together.

2. What do your kids enjoy watching on Amazing Prime Video and why?

The Lego series - ninjago, avengers, etc. They were delighted when we subscribed to prime and realised they could watch them on demand. They also love Teen Titans and the old Batman cartoons. Their watching is very superhero-centric, episodes they can then carry on acting out with their Lego afterwards. My youngest now enjoys getting together his Lego characters and acting out what is going on onscreen whilst he watches.

3. What is your favourite thing about Amazon Prime Video?
   The fact there is so much free on demand. We are not a "leave the tv on all day" family, so if the children want to watch something they each get to specify a programme.

4. What makes Amazon Prime Video appealing to you and your family?

DS1 likes the fact he can watch on his kindle Fire too, and is sometimes allowed to watch a film in bed as a treat.

DS2 is all about the Lego on demand.

5. Tumbleleaf, Wishenpoof!, and Just Add Magic are Amazon Kids' originals available only on Amazon prime - which Amazon Prime Kids' shows have you/your kids watched and what did you/your kids like about them?

Legolegolego. Teen titans. More bloody Lego. I tried to tempt them with the above 3 titles for the test, but they weren't interested.

6. Amazon Prime Video is one of many benefits included in Amazon Prime membership - how important is Amazon Prime membership to you and why?

We got the membership by accident (DH forgot to cancel a free trial ) but actually it's proved very useful with free 1 day deliveries and the video. I would like to see kindle unlimited included in Prime too, though.

DS(10) and I have enjoyed watching Pixar films on Prime together. He doesn't feel that there are as many series that he wants to watch as on Netflix though.

The main downside for us is that he can't have his own identity on Prime (unless I'm missing something) like he does on Netflx, so we can't restrict his access in the same way.

DH and I have watched a lot of Prime series and boxsets and love it.

Prime overall is a must for us. We really get value for money with the free next day delivery, especially as I do all the shopping for my elderly parents, and the sheer variety of things available on Amazon mean that I can get them whatever they need the next day. Even if this really confuses the 'you may also like' algorithms!
