Kids too young?

Post by gina_rae73 »

For years I debated getting a Kindle and my mother recently got the kids version of Kindle for my 5 year old son. She didn't consult me or my husband about it and then bought one for our 4 year old son. My husband and I think she shouldn't have wasted nearly $200 on something my kids are both too young for. They played ABC Mouse and PBS Kids on it for moment but then found YouTube. They throw a fit when the time is up for the day. It's caused issues within my family so I wanted to ask everyone on the forum, do you think a 4 (3 @ time of purchase) and 5 year old are too young? Any tips on how to regulate the situation?

If they have a timelimit( have them set an alarm on the device they’re using) and also onlyeducational games or reading books for now because of their age. Maybe if they are giving you a hard time because they want to stay on the device, offer a reward every time they do the right thing and listen

Kid's are not too young to use kindle so far there are books for kid's and children. Infact raising a child to become a great reader is the best.
