Well worth the money easy to set up.
My granddaughter loves it , speed was great colour was brite , screen size was enough for her the same as the quality. Weight was sturdy enough with the case. Was realy easy to set up and keep her safe. Games and books kept her entertained and she wouldn't come off it.

High Storage Capacity
I bought this for my 4yrs old daughter, the battery life is great last longer than i expected. This ipad is kids friendly and the screen size is perfect for his age. It is fast and standard. We have downloaded alot on the ipad and the storage capacity still take more, the videos are very bright and looks good. It also came with a proof case, so I didn't have to buy.

Great for my 3 year old
I bought this for taking on holiday as plane entertainment for my 3 year old, but we have also been using it at home on occasion. This has been a great investment - I enjoy the restrictions you can place on screen time and the ability to limit time to education resources and monitor what they are accessing. I wish it was a bit more intuitive at times for my daughter to navigate in and out of apps more independently but this will come with time and practice. Nice and sturdy, a good variety of apps and the battery life so far seems really good. I will say, I wish it had a clear and obvious feature on the parent app to remove apps off the device remotely more easily, otherwise I'm very happy.

A quality tablet, sturdy and appealing for younger children
Bought for my 4 year old grandsons Birthday and he loves it so much every other plaything takes a backseat. He's learning so much from the educational apps and is constantly telling me things I didn't actually know about nature etc. It's a very sturdy tablet and I think he loves the fact it looks grown up as opposed to a toy and the fact it will grow with him and he'll get use out of it until he's around 9. He uses it ALL the time. I've had a go on it and I'd actually be happy using it myself... without the parental controls of course. This is a great tablet and I would recommend it without a doubt.

Favourite Christmas gift by far!
Absolutely amazed with this tablet. The size is perfect, the content is appropriate, the storage seems decent, the app choice is brilliant for the chosen age range, the screen quality is spot on. The case is beautiful, lovely colours and very child friendly (survives drops well). Really happy and would definitely recommend to others.
