Six months ago, Amazon launched Kindle FreeTime Unlimited, bringing together for the first time all the types of content kids and parents love—books, games, educational apps, movies, and TV shows—into one simple, unlimited, easy-to-use service for kids ages 3-8. It is an all-you-can-eat service that is subscription based and available only for the Kindle Fire. Today, Amazon announced new content partnerships with Disney, Electronic Arts, and Warner Bros.
New kid-favorites recently added to FreeTime Unlimited include Disney’s hit Where’s My Mickey?, Warner Brother’s LEGO Harry Potter (years 1-4), Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat Comes Back from Oceanhouse Media, Plants vs. Zombies by EA, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt’s Curious George at the Zoo. Customers can subscribe to FreeTime Unlimited from within the Kindle FreeTime app on Kindle Fire.
“In just six months, we’ve added more than a thousand new titles to Kindle FreeTime Unlimited, including customer favorites from Disney, EA, and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment,” said Peter Larsen, Vice President, Amazon Kindle. “Customers tell us they love that FreeTime Unlimited gives kids the freedom to discover and pick their next adventure from an ever-growing library of content. In fact, the vast majority of our customers who take advantage of our one month free trial of FreeTime Unlimited choose to subscribe and enjoy our content library built just for kids. We look forward to continuing to add more great content that parents and kids will love.”
