Considering that children are our future-and our future tech consumers-the computer industry hardly caters to tykes. Just a handful of computers and tablets out there are specifically designed for kids and their little hands. Maybe computer manufacturers don't have to do anything special for children though.
Looking for the best kids' tablet? Consumer Reports tablet tests focused on display quality, battery life, ease of use, and built-in features such as parental controls.
Tablets have become so popular so quickly that they're predicted to surpass both laptops and desktops by 2015. Why? Because they're portable enough to take anywhere, and -- thanks to an ever-growing roster of apps -- are versatile enough for work and play.
Which tablet you get depends on your student's needs - and your budget. From educational apps to digital textbooks, tablets can be a great tool for teens and even younger kids. Students can do just about everything they need on a tablet, especially if you pair it with a keyboard or keyboard case for easy writing and note-taking.
