Sitting in the middle of Amazon's Fire Tablet range designed for children, the Fire HD 8 Kids is a superb tablet for little ones aged between 3-7. It's not the fastest or the sleekest performer around, but it doesn't need to be. My daughter has never complained about lag and absolutely loves everything she can do with it.

Amazon is now offering the new Fire HD 8 Kids Pro tablet for a measly $85. Usually listed at $140, this makes for a discount worth $55 and is perhaps the lowest the tablet has sold for in recent times. What makes the deal all the more special is that this also happens to be the latest version of the tablet, one that was launched only last year.

For those who have concerns about the tablet's performance, the HD 8 offers a decent processing speed for a display at this price point. Depending on the variant, folks can get up to 4GB of RAM, which can make multitasking a more seamless act. Feel free to switch from writing an email to Spotify and start listening to a podcast with this tablet.
