Add Content to a Child Profile

Manage your Child's Amazon Kids Profile and content by using the Parent Dashboard or your device.

Parent Dashboard helps you manage your child’s Amazon Kids content on compatible devices. To add or remove content:

  1. Visit the Parent Dashboard website or open the Amazon Kids+ Parent Dashboard app.
  2. Navigate to the Content menu.
  3. Select the child profile that you wish to manage at the top.
  4. Choose the type of content that you want to add to the child profile.
    • Choose Amazon Kids+ Subscription content to manage content included in your subscription.
    • Choose Amazon content to add your purchased content to your kids' device.
  5. Add or remove content by toggling the switch next to them.

Note: You can also update content within an Amazon Kids Fire Tablet and Fire TV.

Your child can request permission to download titles from our store. After your approval, your child can download the titles and in-app purchases.

To approve access to content:

  1. Visit the Amazon Parent Dashboard website or open the Amazon Kids+ Parent Dashboard app.
  2. Find the child’s profile that you wish to manage and select Settings (gear icon).
  3. Select Store.
  4. Toggle Store On.

Additionally, on the Parent Dashboard app:

  1. Select Settings (gear icon) on the top right of your screen.
  2. Select the child profile that you wish to manage.
  3. Select in store within the Additional Content section.
  4. Toggle Store On.
Important: You can't add the following items to a profile:
  • Personal documents
  • Music
  • Prime Video rentals
  • Videos Included with Prime
Notes:
  1. You can also expand the selection of apps to include "Guidance Suggested" content. A child can then request content not limited to kids, such as Netflix, Zoom, and Minecraft. To turn this feature on, under Store toggle Expanded selection On.
  2. When you activate the Learn First feature, shared content appears on the Kids Profile only after the daily goal is complete.
  3. Not all apps are suitable for Kids. Some might have ads, external links, in-app purchases, or ask for personal info. Some apps may need a separate subscription or a Kids profile before you can use them.
  4. Disabling web access in the child profile still allows access to certain web-sites within content. You can find more information on specific apps in the Amazon Appstore.
  5. On the Parent Dashboard mobile app, you can troubleshoot common issues and provide feedback on app features:
    • Within the app, visit More (bottom right).
    • Go to Feedback and Troubleshooting.
    • Choose the applicable options from the list (App Issues or Give Feedback).
