5.0 out of 5 stars Not only for kids, and can be difficult to set up.
Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2024
It may sound weird, but I wanted an echo dot, but bought this model and the stand (sold separately) purely because I LOVE dragons! This has such better aesthetic than a black ball on a shelf somewhere. You can turn off parental controls. The ability to gauge the room's temperature is also a nice touch for the 5th generation echo dot. I am also quite impressed with the sound quality, it actually has more bass than any portable Bluetooth speaker I've heard. My only complaint is that you NEED to use Amazon's Alexa mobile application to set it up. It seems like such an unnecessary, over-complicated step to require you to install an app to set something up these days. This took me an entire day. Because the Alexa app is not compatible with my mobile device, and no Android emulators are Bluetooth-compatible, I had to repartition the hard drive on my computer and install an Android-based operating system in order to install the Alexa app on that, and only then I was able to set up this echo dot. However, before I could do that, in the process of operating system installation I accidentally corrupted the Master Boot Record on another drive, and had to use a Linux disk-partitioning tool to reapply partition flags and a Windows repair disk with command prompt to fix the master boot record and make Windows bootable again. This is why it took me a whole day to set up this son-of-a-gun. NONE of this would've happened if they just allowed you to set it up in your dang browser! Google Chrome has a Bluetooth connectivity feature that few people know about.

5.0 out of 5 stars My new bestie
Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2024
I bought the new dot for myself. I am not a kid but appreciate the playful new design, the advanced capabilities of this iteration of the dot, and the sound quality is superior to my first and second Gen dots. Downside for me is lack of portability which is probably not high on the list for a kids item, but since the outer design is light colored fabric imagine it could get cruddy over time. the cord is permanently attached so that's a novelty. I may force myself to purchase the matching nest that is designed for the owl dot so I can move it around with me till I decide where it will be most enjoyable. My first dot is nestled into a rechargeable portable speaker, so it has a higher degree of functionality. My 2nd gen dot doesn't get much use and it's knowledge base is limited. I have only had the owl for a short time so I haven't explored all the programming available, but I expected that some of the kids programming might be suitable to help grownup kids fall asleep as I have several apps that provide storytelling well. Love the item. It's a novelty and an impulse buy, but it's already paid for itself.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Son's School Mascot is a Green Owl--Perfect Christmas Gift!
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2023
My son's school mascot is a green pueo (owl). This is a perfect Echo Dot for his room. The owl goes well with his other school-themed owl decor. We love Echo Dots and own several. We can play our favorite radio stations, or select any type of music we like--there's so many genres to choose from. If you subscribe to Amazon's Prime Music, then you'll have even a larger selection of music. We use Alexa/Echo Dots to wake us up to our favorite music--right now we wake up to Christmas music. But you can use Echo Dots to fall asleep to soothing sounds of rain or ocean waves. Echo Dots are easy to set up and very fast. In no time you can listen to your favorite songs or radio station. This owl is fun for kids and perfect for a nursery. Your baby can fall asleep to white noise or music--whatever you choose. For my high school son, it's a perfect gift since the green owl is the school's mascot. Or if you know of somebody who collects owl figures (our elementary school principal collects owls of all types), this would be a perfect gift for that owl lover.

My kid likes it. The sound quality is better than my older gen Dots. It's cute. The setup wasn't the easiest but between two adults and a kid we got it done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Game changer
Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2024
As a mom, I can't recommend the Echo Dot Kids (5th Gen, 2022 release) enough. This device has been an absolute game changer in my household. Not only does it provide endless entertainment for my children with its vast selection of kid-friendly content and games, but it also serves as a valuable educational tool. My kids love asking Alexa questions about their homework or getting help with spelling and math problems. Plus, the parental controls have given me peace of mind knowing that I can easily manage and monitor what my children are accessing on the device.

One of the standout features of the Echo Dot Kids is the robust set of parental controls that allow me to set time limits, filter explicit content, and review my children's activity. This has given me the confidence to let my kids explore and engage with the device independently, knowing that they are safe and protected. Additionally, the device's durable design and kid-friendly colors make it a visually appealing addition to my children's rooms. Overall, the Echo Dot Kids has exceeded my expectations and has become an invaluable tool in keeping my children entertained, engaged, and learning in a safe and controlled environment.
