My DS is 11 in March and we're thinking of getting him a tablet. We have a family laptop which he can use for schoolwork and he has an MP3 player for his music and a very low spec phone for calling / texting only.
We have a family Wii but nothing like an xbox / playstation. Most of his friends have higher spec phones and Xboxes but we try very hard not to get caught up in what "other" people have
We know he'd dearly love something techy but don't feel he needs his own laptop yet.
So, hence the tablet!
Do your kids have tablets or do they use yours and if so, what for? He has mild dyslexia / dyspraxia and think there are some good apps for that but what else would you recommend downloading for it or using it for?
Thanks all!
