Earlier this week Amazon announced a new version of Kindle FreeTime that will be coming too its lines of Kindle Fires in the coming weeks. The update adds time limits for weekdays and weekends and a curfew time called “Bedtime”. The update brings educational goals: parents will be able to set educational goals such as reading from Common Core standard-aligned books for a set amount of time before going on to play a game or video. Amazon also promises a much larger library of educational books, apps, games and videos to be added to Kindle FreeTime Unlimited. In the press release Amazon states, “in the coming months, parents will be able to borrow a Kindle book from a participating public library, and make it available to their kids in FreeTime”. Owners have been able to borrow Kindle books from participating public libraries for sometime but the ability to share library books with children through FreeTime is a welcome addition. Amazon is anticipating that these updates will make their line of tablets even more irresistible for parents.
