Kids Edition is Great!
4 Stars
Kids Edition is Great!
My son has a speech disorder. Most of what he says can be understood but Alexa has trouble understanding him. Sometimes she will tell him "Sorry I can't do that." Yet when I say it, she does fine. Other than that, he is enjoying his dot. Especially the routines and jokes. The bedtime routine I set is great. I even added an extra one in case he wakes up in the middle of the night and needs help going back to sleep. This is a learning experience for both of us. Books have been an issue.
