Amazon Fire
9 Answers
I have to buy a tablet for an elderly relative. She will mostly be playing hidden object type games, looking at her photo albums and listening to her music. Nothing taxing. She uses my iPad but she needs her own device.
As she has a tendency to drop (and throw) things I am thinking that a cheap Amazon Fire tablet would be best, in one of those kiddies cases for ease of handling and protection against drops.
I need to know what she will be able to play the games that she enjoys which she mostly accesses through Facebook. Any advice would be welcome.

I just wanted to say that the Fire Kid's Edition is a resounding success without adding the Google Play Store. She finds it easy to hold, easy to use and loves the colour (purple, if you are wondering).
I don't need to worry about her dropping it, or throwing it. She has taken it like a duck to water and my iPad will live to see another day.
This is not a recommendation for the Fire in itself, it certainly won't suit everyone but my aged relative only uses a tablet to play a few casual games, look at her memory photo albums and videos and look at the weather forecast (she is obsessed with the weather). It is perfect for her needs.
Thanks all
