    Default Nexus 7 vs Kindle Fire /HD

    I'm going to get my 3, 5 and 6 year old their own tablets. Opinions on which one to get them. I was leaning towards the Kindle Fire HD because of the kid free time option. What would you suggest and why.

    I would never recommend a Kindle Fire. its just walled and there is not a lot you can do.

    with Nexus 7 you have multiuser and can restrict secondary user.

    kids place is an app which restrict your kids to do only kids stuff. it even blocks app installs



    Custom home screen displays only apps that parents have authorized
    ★ Can prevent children from buying or downloading new apps
    ★ Capable of blocking incoming calls when Kids Place is running
    ★ Capable of disabling all wireless signals while Kids Place is running to avoid exposure to cell phone, wifi and Bluetooth radiation
    ★ Can restarts apps accidentally stopped by small children, allowing parents to stay focused on their own tasks.
    ★ Add custom wallpaper to customize your child’s experience while in Kids Place
    ★ Timer feature to lock Kids Place after specified amount of time.
    ★ Appropriate for children of all ages - babies, toddlers, even teenagers

    In this child friendly Parental Control app, Home; Back; Search and Call buttons are locked so that kid cannot get out of the Kids Place or make phone calls.

    a search in the market

    My choice would be based on child content delivery. I basically want to hand the devices to my kids and not have to do anything with it once set up. The device is not for me as I have no use for a tablet.
