  what's your budget per device?
  will it be mainly for games, or perhaps some educational content?

    Hi batter…good question about about budget. Is $120-$150 sufficient for a decent device? Devices would be for games and educational content. My nearly 7 year old loves ABC reading eggs so it needs to handle that and maths. Same for the older child. Thanks heaps

  Officeworks have a HP tablet for $149. I have the previous model, which is bigger & works well. Not all programs are supported though.

      Some of the more graphics intensive ones??? Sometimes though, they can be manually installed.

  I bought refurbished 10" ASUS and 7" Nexus from here for my kids in the past. Came packaged as new (coudln't tell they were refurbished) and do everything they need without complaint

  Best of luck. Some cheaper tablets like Pendo are incredibly slow.

  i think he means he wants pharmaceuticals for a 11 & 7 year old. Ritalin is pretty popular.
