It’s the most wonderful season of all! It’s Christmas Time! We have all kinds of fun family Christmas traditions that we’ve blended with both the Husband’s family and mine. I always look forward to these fun family Christmas Traditions all year long.
While we don’t want to miss out on anything, time is still limited. So it’s always great when I can find something that helps make our family traditions easier to complete.
Making Fun Family Christmas Traditions with Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet
It’s taken me time to warm up to the idea of my girls owning their own tablet.
We don’t like the idea of unlimited electronic time. Finding that perfect balance between traditional imaginative playtime while also allowing them to be involved in the technological world we now live, can be tricky.
Not to mention kids are hard on toys and gadgets. Who wants to spend money on something the kids are likely to break in the first month.
But with the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet, it has an amazing Parenting Dashboard. I can set time limits, block content, adjust age filters, enable/disable web browser access, choose whether to allow in-app purchasing, set educational goals, and remotely adjust my child’s FreeTime settings.
Plus each Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet comes with a kid-proof case and a two-year worry-free guarantee.
If for any reason, my kids happen to break it, I can simply return it and Amazon will send a replacement for free, no questions asked.
Now that is a magical sound for every parent’s ears!
And perhaps one of my favorite features is that each Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet comes with a year subscription to Amazon FreeTime Unlimited.
It grants your kids access to over 20,000 books, videos, Audible books, educational apps, and games that are age-appropriate and hand-curated by the Amazon FreeTime team.
What this means is NO ACCIDENTAL ORDERING by the kids of apps, games, and books! Can we sing praises to Amazon creators?
How to make Family Christmas Traditions with Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet
We have a long list of Fun family Christmas traditions to complete in December. Like decorating the Christmas tree together, putting out the nativities, and singing Christmas music along with Alexa!
Here are just a few ways that we use the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet to complete our Holiday traditions.
Watch Christmas Movies: One of our favorite activities in December is enjoying Holiday movies all month long. But I don’t always have time to sit and watch movies with the kids when they have free time.
So instead I let them have access to hundreds of Christmas Movies on their Fire HD 8 Kids edition tablet.
They even have The Littlest Angel! That is a story my Mom and older sisters used to read to me when I was a child every Christmas. It is a very cherish family tradition. And now my own kids can enjoy the same story!
Read Christmas Books: While we will always love the classic physical books, there are some added benefits to an e-reader.
I love the storage of the Fire HD 8 Kids edition tablet. It allows me to store hundreds of kids stories on the one device.
That means less clutter around the house. Easier to travel with stories.
And best of all, hundreds of selections of stories you can read with your kids even including classics like The Night Before Christmas!
We always have a tradition of reading Christmas Stories together in December. And Now I don’t have to go out and buy every single book. We can simply access them on the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet.
And for the times when Mom isn’t free, the kids can also enjoy the same holiday stories with Audible books that can read to your kids when you can’t.
Bake Christmas Treats: One of my favorite activities over the holidays is the Christmas baking!
We always bake treats for neighbors and friends. And it’s always more fun with company. I love when the kids help me bake the Christmas treats.
We can find a variety of kid-friendly cookbooks available in Amazon FreeTime Unlimited on the Fire HD 8 Kid Edition.
There are easy recipes to make together to make the most of our Fun Family Christmas Baking traditions.
When you are finished with the recipe, you can easily put on a fun Christmas show! This is a tradition in our family. We either listen to Christmas Music or watch a Christmas movie as we bake the Christmas Treats.
Right now my girls are loving Timmy’s Time Christmas Episode, from the creators of Wallace & Gromit.
Take the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition on the Road!
We typically don’t travel over the holiday break. Instead, we like the luxury of just staying home and enjoying our family in a non-stressful way.
But if you are a family that travels over the holidays, you will love how the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet makes travel easy with Offline Mode.
With Offline Mode you can download content to the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition tablet before you start traveling.
This means you never need to worry about finding a Wi-Fi connection to enjoy favorite books, videos, educational apps, Audible books, and games.
Not to mention you have access to all the current hits! My girls are currently in love with the Miraculous the Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir game.
There is still time to order a Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet before Christmas Day! If the 8″ tablet isn’t the right size, you can also find a Fire HD 7 Kids Edition Tablet and a Fire HD 10 kids edition tablet.
