"Young children think with their fingers. If they see something, they jab at it."

"iPad evaporated the abstract link between a childโ€™s hand and the more abstract screen images, so no game controller or mouse is needed."

I read these article gadgetwise.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/01/30/is-the-ipad-a-kid… and tried to hand our kids the iPad. Yup, Warren Buckleitner was right. Our kids enjoyed the iPad within seconds. No hints, no instructions. iPad is the child’s best friend ๐Ÿ™‚

    I believe the video is embedable. Just check the ‘Share this’ button at the top of the video ๐Ÿ™‚

    Still grayed out unfortunately but I found this setting in Account Settings: Who can share your photos or video?.

    You might want to look at changing that. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Thank you *bows*
    The iPad survived so far. Fortunately, the kids now how to treat such ‘fragile device’ ๐Ÿ˜€

  4. This is so cute!!!
    When using iPad, kids are genius. We realise it will be so much fun playing with them with the convenience brought by iPad, so we set up a studio developing kids app only. As parents ourself we wanna bring the best apps for all the families. We have submitted our first app for review, hope it will be on iPad app store soon! Hope you like it!

  5. [http://www.flickr.com/photos/onelamp] Thank you!! Can we have the name of the app? We’d like to try it & review it with kids.

  6. Is there any chance you can list the apps the girls are playing? We just got one and I would love to have a few of the ones I saw them using! Great vid and cute daughters!! =D
