Best tablets for kids
Studies indicate that children in India spend an average of two hours daily watching television and are now increasingly spending a lot of time playing games on parent’s smart phones. With parents having increasing concerns about responsible use of technology, here’s why these tablets make for a good investment in a child’s future:
- Targeted at children aged 3+: 80% of a child’s brain is developed before the age of ten and these are the most critical learning years for a child, which impact future success.
- Child appropriate content: Content has been stringently reviewed and approved by educators to ensure suitability for kids.
- Strong parental control: Eddy’s proprietary Athena OS provides children a completely safe environment and allows robust parental controls including time discipline, usage reports and kid-safe Internet browsing.
- Powerful Intel technology: The tablets run on high performing dual core Intel processor Z2520 and feature 2 mega-pixel front & back cameras, 1GB RAM and 16GB storage.
- Ophthalmologist approved: The screens are ophthalmologist approved as these are designed to provide protection from UV rays and reduce eyestrain.
- Safety features: The scratch-proof screens are impact resistant, with a 9H hardness level. The tablets come with high quality drop-safe bumper made of food grade silicone to prevent damage from falls.
The Creativity and Ben 10 tablets are a responsible and safe technology alternative for introducing kids to the digital age.
