Kindle FreeTime

Kindle FreeTime lets you create a personalised experience for up to four children, giving you

complete control over what content each child can access. Kids earn achievements that help

them keep track of their personal reading accomplishments.

Kindle FreeTime automatically blocks access to the Kindle Store, the Experimental Web

Browser, Goodreads and Wikipedia. Children can only read books that you have added to

their library.

Kindle FreeTime Unlimited is an optional monthly subscription that offers thousands of

books, apps, films and TV shows for children aged three to eight years old. Tap the

Characters button on the toolbar to view content categories. Apps, Films and TV shows are

not available on your Kindle E-reader, but can be accessed at no additional charge on your

Fire tablet or Amazon Fire TV. Not all books included in Kindle FreeTime Unlimited are

supported on your Kindle E-Reader due to publisher exclusions, but can be viewed on your

Fire tablet.

Setting up Kindle FreeTime

Tap the Kindle FreeTime item on the Home screen to get started. You will be prompted to

set a Parental Controls password if you do not already have one. To create a profile for your

child, enter your child’s first name, date of birth and gender. A Kindle FreeTime Unlimited

page will display.

Next, a list of the titles in your Kindle Library displays. Tap the checkbox next to an item's

title to add it to your child's Kindle FreeTime library, then tap OK. To add or remove books

from your child's reading list later, tap the profile icon next to your child's name on the

main Kindle FreeTime screen, then select Library.

Set Access Achievements to On to enable your child to view earned achievements. Use the

Daily Reading Goal option to specify the number of minutes your child should read for each

day.

Once you have completed the Kindle FreeTime profile setup process, simply tap the Kindle

FreeTime item on the Home screen to access profiles. You can create up to four profiles. To

manage a profile later, tap the profile icon next to a child’s name. Options include

Progress, Library, Edit, Delete and Subscription. Choosing the Delete option will delete the

profile permanently, including that child's reading statistics and any achievements they may

have earned.
