Amazon's Echo Show

Echo Show brings you everything you love about Alexa, and now she can show you things. Watch video flash briefings, Amazon Video content, see music lyrics, security cameras, photos, weather forecasts, to-do and shopping lists, browse and listen to Audible audiobooks, and more. All hands-free—just ask.
"You can use your Amazon Show to do more than ask what the weather is or set a cooking timer."
You can use your Amazon Show to do more than ask what the weather is or set a cooking timer. I use it in therapy to have kids ask questions, get updates about news stories, play games, and set work timers. The Amazon Show can be used as a fun way to help kids with executive function skills and homework by helping them set reminders about upcoming homework assignments, listen to books on Audible, set timers for homework tasks, what videos on how to solve math problems, or take a quick break by playing one of the many games. I have also used my Amazon Show to do drop-in video chats with my older students to see how their work is going or to answer questions they are having. With more and more features being added, this is a great tool for kids (and adults).
