If not, allow us to introduce you to the Fire tablet, Amazon’s popular low-cost line of tablets that admittedly can’t do what an iPad can, but not everyone needs all those fancy bells and whistles. If you think you’ll be a more casual tablet user, a Fire tablet might be a smart choice.

The best Fire tablet deals for kids
Because we like it
If you’re getting a tablet for yourself, you might as well get one for your little one. The Fire HD 10 Kids Pro is a great choice and is $40 off during the Great Spring Sale. It’s full of things to distract your child with, and you’ll get an extensive set of parental controls to make sure they’re using the device in a healthy and safe way. You’ll also get one year of Amazon Kids+, a protective case, and a two-year warranty (because accidents can and will happen).
