Nowadays, Kids are really obsessed with the latest Mobile Technology
Devices, most especially Smartphones, Phablets and Tablets. In fact,
it's really hard to find a kid that doesn't like Playing Games, watching
Cartoons or even Surfing the Internet on Tablets. But do you think it's
a good idea to buy a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) for a kid ?
Definitely Not, because it's too expensive and fragile for a kid to be
using. So because of some of us that have kids and want them to
experience what it feels like to own a Tablet, I've compiled a list of
the best 10 Tablets for kids and their prices. Apart from the durable design these Tablets features, the software and applications on them have also been tailored to suit Children. Now, relax as you check this list in order to decide which one you'll like to buy for Junior. Here you go -->

1. Kurio 7s
The Kurio 7s is a
7-inch Android tablet that comes with built-in parental controls and
a
kid-safe web browser so that your kid won't be able to access any no-no
sites. Plus,
parents have the option to add as many as 8 different user profiles,
each with its own settings and files. The added time management controls
can be used to assign usage time limits or time slots to each user
account, ensuring that kids won't stay up all night playing Flappy Bird
on their Tab. Also, you don't have to worry about your kid damaging the
Tab because a thick silicone bumper has been attached to the device
which protects it from
accidental drops. Furthermore, the Kurio 7s sports a 1024 x 600 pixel
touchscreen, a dual-core processor, cameras on the front and back,

I got the nabi 2 for my daughter a couple of yrs back from BestBuy. Indeed it was a good buy but certainly has its flaws. It is not that sensitive to touch, and the "back tab" failed to operate most times until it packed up less than a week ago. I am actually online right now looking for what to buy in replacement, cos i have not had a good rest without "Daddy where is the nabi" kind of question.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your review, quite helpful. Hope i make a good choice. Functionality, ruggedity, and durability are what i need most in my next buy.
Hello there, what a really nice feedback from you. I hope your kids enjoy their next tab !
DeleteHello pls can you help me out with the shop where I can get the tablet XO KIDS I stay around ikeja.

ReplyDeleteNope, It's not... It can only be used to access the internet via Wi-Fi since it has no SIM slot.
DeletePlease I need a tablet for my 2 year old son, which can you advice plus he loves the teletubbies cartoons, is it possible to download this on his tablet
