Whether you’re after a distraction-free reading experience or a fun way to keep the kids engaged this summer, the latest Kindle Paperwhite Kids is worth considering. And now, thanks to Amazon’s Mother’s Day promo, you can pick it up at either Amazon or Best Buy starting at just $139.99 ($40 off), which matches the e-reader’s best price to date. 

Although aimed at children, Amazon’s kid-friendly ebook reader is almost identical to the standard Kindle Paperwhite, which is remains our favorite e-reader for devouring Kindle books. It boasts IPX8 water resistance and the same seven-inch 300ppi display, along with USB-C support and enough space for stowing thousands of digital books. It’s just as snappy as the standard model, too, and Amazon has included a color-temperature-adjustable backlight for nighttime reading.

What sets the 16GB Kids model apart are the extras, many of which are great for the whole family. Notably, it’s free of distracting lockscreen ads and comes with a two-year hardware protection plan. You also get expanded parental controls and can choose from one of several kid-friendly covers, including one depicting a starfish-laden seascape and another a futuristic city. Plus, Amazon has thrown in six months of Amazon Kids Plus (valued at $36), granting you access to a wide range of age-appropriate digital books, games, and videos.

A few extra deals to kick off your weekend  Amazon’s Smart Thermostat is on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target for $62.99 ($17 off), which is its second-best price of the year. The budget-friendly smart thermostat supports Amazon Hunches, allowing it to adapt to your routines and preferences over time. While lacks native temperature sensors and support for voice assistants beyond Amazon Alexa, it’s still a good buy, especially if you’re already invested in Amazon’s ecosystem and looking to cut down on cooling costs. Read our review. Now through June 1st, Best Buy is throwing in a free Clicks keyboard (a $139 value) when you preorder the 2025 Motorola Razr ($699.99), the Razr Plus ($899.99), or the wood-adorned Razr Ultra ($1,299.99). The handy typing accessory connects via USB-C, adding a physical keyboard you can use regardless of whether your phone is open or closed. As for the latest Razr models, they arrive on May 15th, bringing with them minor hardware upgrades and new AI capabilities — including a “Remember this” feature that lets Moto AI recall details you’ve asked it to remember. The Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam is down to $59.99 ($30 off) at Amazon and Target (if you’re a Target Circle member), which is $10 shy of its all-time low. The 1080p security camera’s mechanically rotating head offers 360-degree panning (plus a generous tilt range) to ensure you can see every corner of the room it’s in. It also supports two-way talk and the ability to sound a siren, along with alerts for people, packages, and vehicles if you sign up for a Ring Home plan, which starts at $4.99 a month.
