I'm really sorry if this has been done to death but I've done a search and can't see anything massively up to date.
I want to buy DS (6) (nearly 7) a kindle fire for Xmas. He loves playing games on the c bbc website, dangermouse etc. I also want him to access educational type apps.
I am not hugely keen on the massive volume of stuff you seem to get with the amazon kids free time app that has the great parental controls on it.
Am I mad to consider getting the basic kindle fire and not getting the amazon kids free time app? If I do this are there individual apps that I can download to put restrictions on eg time, search engines etc?
This is all new to me so many apologies if this sounds a bit basic!!
