VR headsets just for experiences? Worth it ?

Thinking of buying some for me, not for gaming as such but mainly for experiences. My child is coming up for 10 and wants one but I'm reluctant to let a child use it as it says 13 recommended but reviews on argos website loads of people saying there kids love it. Younger than 13 so I'm wondering how many let their children play?

There are lots of apps available that are not games, plus it is good for keeping fit too. There are art apps (painting in VR is wild), colouring in, meditation, general social apps with groups for everything you can think of from learning languages to open mic comedy. You can also watch Netflix etc in VR.

The danger with young children using it us that they could end up chatting to anyone of any age, and some people wont be too pleasant. Some parents do use VR as a babysitter and let their kids go feral online.
