Amazon FreeTime (Amazon Fire for Kids in the UK)
Amazon FreeTime (known as Amazon Fire for Kids in the UK) lets you create a personalized
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. Access to the Kindle Store, the Experimental Web Browser, Goodreads, and
Wikipedia is automatically blocked. Children can only read books that you have added to their library.
