Hey

So, with black Friday coming up I'm looking to get my 4 year old a tablet.

I think £150ish is reasonable amout? What would you guys recommend for that sort of money?

Next one, recommendation for a radio app? I used to use TuneIn many years ago but it's a subscription now. Anything that's good that's like having DAB in the car?

Thanks for any input

Thanks for the recommendation's I'll look into the fire HD.

I've got the Radio Garden app on my phone after it was recommended to me. I tend to rely on BBC Sounds, so haven't used Radio Garden much. But it does seem to have a big selection of independent radio stations from around the world.

I'll try both of them Monday. Cheers

4 year old a tablet ?
Surely at that age your prepping for pre school must be better options than tech

It's 2021, most kids have them. As long as he's not on it 24/7 then I see no wrong. Plenty on learning apps you can get to.

Just about to buy the Amazon hd 10 kids pro and it's saying delivery is Jan 22nd.

Any more recommendations?

Radio garden is exactly what I was looking for, thanks chaps!


EDIT: found it at Curry's, £74.99 with code FREENEXTDAYDELIVERY

Wait until black Friday/cyber Monday and the price will be £50-70 less

Not going to drop to £5, surly ?
I think it's already dropped as much as it will do going off previous prices

A lot of the educational apps are very good. Sure if you're just plonking your kid in front of netflix for hours on end, it's not great but used in the right way, a tablet can really develop learning a lot.

Even a short time when it's wind down time, watch a film and nod off. Or on a long car journey. They do get addictive, my older son is never off his PC,and that's my fault. So lesson learnt,I'll limit my younger son.
