Whether you’re after a distraction-free reading experience or a fun way to keep the kids engaged this summer, the latest Kindle Paperwhite Kids is worth considering. And now, thanks to Amazon’s Mother’s Day promo, you can pick it up at either Amazon or Best Buy starting at just $139.99 ($40 off), which matches the e-reader’s best price to date.
Although aimed at children, Amazon’s kid-friendly ebook reader is almost identical to the standard Kindle Paperwhite, which is remains our favorite e-reader for devouring Kindle books. It boasts IPX8 water resistance and the same seven-inch 300ppi display, along with USB-C support and enough space for stowing thousands of digital books. It’s just as snappy as the standard model, too, and Amazon has included a color-temperature-adjustable backlight for nighttime reading.
What sets the 16GB Kids model apart are the extras, many of which are great for the whole family. Notably, it’s free of distracting lockscreen ads and comes with a two-year hardware protection plan. You also get expanded parental controls and can choose from one of several kid-friendly covers, including one depicting a starfish-laden seascape and another a futuristic city. Plus, Amazon has thrown in six months of Amazon Kids Plus (valued at $36), granting you access to a wide range of age-appropriate digital books, games, and videos.
