Our take on the Ematic PBS HDMI Streaming Stick

The Ematic PBS Kids Plug and Play is a kid-focused HDMI streaming stick that delivers PBS Kids shows, sing-along songs and simple educational games to a TV. It is built around a walled garden: only PBS Kids content, no open app store, no general streaming services. That makes it easy for parents who want a locked-down screen for young children, but it also limits the device to one content brand. Owners rate it poorly, with complaints centered on reliability, content variety and the small game library.

Questions and answers

Does it stream anything besides PBS Kids?
No. The device is built around PBS Kids shows, songs and games only. There is no app store for Netflix, YouTube or other services.
Do I need a subscription?
No separate subscription is required for the PBS Kids content the stick provides. You do need a TV with an HDMI port and a Wi-Fi connection.
Can my child access other apps or the internet?
No. The interface is closed to PBS Kids content, which is the main reason parents consider it.
How does it compare with a kids' tablet?
A tablet offers far more apps and games and works offline. This stick's advantage is that it is locked to one trusted content brand on a TV.
What comes in the box?
The streaming stick itself, sized to plug directly into an HDMI port. A power connection and Wi-Fi are needed to use it.
Where is the Ematic PBS HDMI Streaming Stick cheapest?
At Walmart, for $15.89, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the Ematic PBS HDMI Streaming Stick?
