Why do I need an Amazon Echo (aka Alexa!)
If you don't have an Alexa in your family, you really want one and you just don't know it! This thing does everything. It can play music, order a pizza, call an Uber, control smart home devices, read the news or audiobooks, send and receive messages, set alarms and basically answer any question you can think of! We seriously love ours. They also come in so many different finishes now, so I love that you can make it blend with any room in your house.
If you're wondering how you'd even use an echo device in your house, here are some posts I've done in the past to explain how I use Alexa for SO MANY THINGS!!
Which echo device is the best for me?
BASIC: If you just want something basic for a bathroom or a guest room or really anywhere, this basic echo dot device is the least expensive at $17.99 for prime day and will do everything you need it to do!
CLOCK: If you want an alarm clock too (and maybe you're trying to break the habit of looking at your phone late at night, or first thing in the morning!) this Echo Dot with clock & Alexa is a super smart space-saving clock and digital companion for all your meditate to go to sleep, white noise, gentle wakeup at the right time, know what time it is in the middle of the night, and playlist to get you going for the day device!
KIDS: If you have kiddos, the obvious choice is an Echo Dot kids for them, with built-in parental controls and a year free of Amazon kids+ which allows them to listen to kid-friendly audible books, use interactive games and educational skills. My kids have loved playing games or riddles with Alexa. I've had nothing but great experiences with our kid kindles, so I'm pretty certain we'll have a similar experience with these kid-safe devices.
LARGE ROOM: if you have a MAIN hang-out room like we do – our kitchen and family room – then you'll be so happy with the Echo 4th gen. w/ premium sound! This device has premium sound connected to it, so it can fill even really large spaces with beautiful music, AND it works as a smart home hub too! So you can use it to control locks, lights, and sensors in your home.
One of my FAVORITE things to do is set up our Alexa with these smart plugs (SUPER good deal rn too, half off at $12.99 instead of $24.99!) to control our Christmas trees! So I can say, “Alexa, turn on the Christmas trees” and BOOM. They're shining bright like a diamond. No need to crouch under the tree and get pine needles and sap on your hands turning on the tree lights!
Don't miss these prime day deals!
Honestly if you're looking at ALL into getting an echo device to have Alexa by your side, for kitchen dance parties and listening to the news in the morning and asking for the weather report or the traffic report, do it NOW because these are the best deals I've ever seen and they likely won't resurface till Black Friday!
