    Looking to buy tablets for my 2 girls. They are 8+9, just for games and music. What would you recommend?

    More than likely they will want to play the same games as their friends, so you're probably looking at an iPad of some flavour. Check with some of their friends to see if they're mostly using iPads or Android tablets. Get the cheapest ipads you can, second hand if possible, as kids of this age will naturally bump them around a fair bit. Get a really good permanent cover for them too to provide extra protection. And pay close attention to the app store so that they cant buy apps or in-app purchases without your approval!

    Hi thanks for your reply, tbh not many of their friends have tablets. Their cousin has an anoroid and I have a samsung galsxy so they have played both of ours . Any if thrir cousins games they have liked ive installed them on mine.

    I really dont know much about them, is their any benefit of getting an ipad over an anaroid? Only the games are diffrent??? I persume you can get all the same music on both?
