Depends on the age. I'd be fine with an older child having an iPad (12+?). Our 6 and 8 year olds have Amazon fire tablets because I can set limits and control apps on them for their ages. So we set time limits per content, and wake/sleep hours for weekdays and weekends. No arguing as once the tablet says their quota is up, it locks them out. No more "just 5 minutes!".

DDs have iPad minis.

Pros: they've lasted years (5+), family sharing/linked to my iPhone account etc, very easy to use, guided access to stop clicking away from screen

Cons: no cons for us, but they're more expensive than other tablets if cost is an issue

DD is 4 and used an amazon fire for educational games and videos. It's great for kids safety imo and we've had it 2 or 3 years with no issues. Get a good case and charging habits
