Ameba Review
Ameba is a children’s video streaming service that is full of educational programming. The content catalog comprises 14,000+ episodes and 2,800 hours of kid’s shows.
There is a Free ad-supported version that allows you to watch up to five episodes per show. However, there are some shows that are exclusive to Premium members. The Premium (ad-free) plan is $3.99/month, $19.99/year, and $39.99 for three years. You can also watch one free, ad-supported video per show when you use the service as a guest.
We recommend adding Ameba as a channel on Amazon Prime Video so you can access the content on that platform as well as the Ameba app.
