How would I find it?
Do you want him to be able to interact with just one app and not move to others, or not be able to use the screen at all?

Screen pinning only helps with the 1st option.

Right. With the 1st option he can do anything that the app allows, like pause, change video, or maybe launch a browser activity from inside the app etc. The only thing it blocks is changing apps by pressing the keys under the screen, and pulling down the notification panel.

This may still work for what you need, but for more control you need some kind of app that is used to setup tablets for in-store use.

If that's the case, i don't think it will work on a kindle. You can check if Amazon app store has it.

Using another site won't help if their only push service is through Google Play Services.
