Kids' Kindle at Black Friday prices on Amazon
With parental controls and an extensive library, it's a tech-savvy way to get kids reading. I got them for my kids to read on the bus, so they always have a book or two with them that doesn't take up much space. Prices aren't yet available, but Kindles always feature prominently in Amazon's Black Friday and Prime Day deals, so I'm keeping my eyes on the price drops starting the day after Thanksgiving.
Check out our guide to the best kids' books for suggestions on what to load that Kindle up with!
