How old are your niece and nephew?
One area Apple have a significant advantage is with kids who've grown up with iPod Touches (or iPods Touch for the pedants) and are therefore familiar with iOS and the apps available on the app store.
If I were looking for a present (a very generous present I might add) for kids between 8 and 18, I'd be hyper aware that they may have opinions on what they want and be guided by that.
- duck 14y agoMy six year old can switch between my Transformer tablet and my wife's iPhone without even blinking an eye. Kids tend to not be set in their ways like us old people.
- Tyrannosaurs 14y agoAgree with that (have actually just posted similarly above), I was more thinking if all their friends are making movies with iMovie or whatever, that's what they'll want to be doing. The learning curve is nothing at that age.
- Shivetya 14y agoNiece and nephew are seven and nice respectively. I would like to encourage them to use the devices for something other than games. Having no children of my own I am not even sure where to begin when it comes to app selection. Being children their interests do change often but helping them in their schooling, something that is self directed so when mom isn't around to encourage them the software itself is engaging enough to do so. So I am up for recommendations. I am more than willing to load up apps for whichever tablet I give them and in fact would be much happier if I could deliver them experience out of the box.
