Android phones, apps and tablets

Yep - looked at the previous gen of that (£200ish) - it runs android and I found a guy who did a mod to clean up the UI with nova launcher and kill the most of the google apps etc. But its too pricey and doesn't have a speaker. Ideally needs a speaker cos kid likes audible to get to sleep or while playing lego and the additional hassle of connecting to a BT speaker is annoying. At the moment they are forever asking to borrow our phones. Im hoping to be able to give them something that gives them music and stories whenever - without them needing to ask me, or for me to check they aren't on youtube. Kindle kids does audible through BT but no spotify either.
