So I've seen these advertisements on how intuitive the iPad is for kids (talking about REALLY young kids) to use. (And you can see YouTube videos of kids -- single digit age -- using it like a pro.) Call me old fashion, but isn't that one very expensive toy? And, risking dating myself, but when I was a kid, these are not apps, these are the real things, that clutter up the house:
Has there been any study done on the effect on kids playing EVERYTHING on a computer screen? Is it just as good developmentally speaking, or not? I'm skeptical... but I also belong to a totally different generation. More importantly, I have no kids... and have no inkling whatsoever to have any.
