Creating a Child Profile
NOTE: Before you create a child profile on your NOOK, the Primary Account on the device must have been
configured with a payment method such as a credit card. When the child profile is created, your NOOK
will charge one penny to your payment method as a record of the account creation. Your NOOK will
also oer you free books, which you can add to the child profile’s Library.
To create a new child profile for your device, do this:
1. In the upper left corner of the Home Screen, tap the icon for the profile currently being displayed.
A window opens displaying the profile or profiles already created on your device. In addition, the panel features
two buttons: Add Adult Profile and Add Child Profile.
2. Tap Add Child Profile.
Your NOOK displays a form for creating a profile.
3. Tap the underlined words to customize the profile. Enter the name and gender of the child. Tap the up and down
arrow buttons to select the month and year the child was born, so that your NOOK can present recommenda-
tions appropriate for the child’s age. Tap the checkbox to indicate you are familiar with the terms and conditions
of creating a child profile. You can read the terms and conditions by tapping the hyperlinked text beside the
checkbox.
4. Tap Continue.
If you have not entered a payment method for the primary profile, your NOOK guides you through a form for
entering credit card information. When you have entered information for a credit card issued from a U.S. bank to
a cardholder with a U.S. address, tap Continue to continue creating the child profile.
NOTE: Federal privacy regulations that we validate parental consent for children under the age of 13. In order
to do so, you will be asked to confirm a $0.01 charge to validate this credit card before you finish creat-
ing this child profile. A free Kids book will be added to your account once you complete this step. Once
you have validated this charge, you will not need to repeat this step.
Your NOOK displays the Parental Controls page for this account.
