Any recommendations on kids tablets for a 5 year old? My budget is something under $150 that can access YouTube, Disney+, and Netflix (optional). Any ideas? We bought an ApoloMedia tablet for $65 and must have got a bad batch because it’s unusably slow. Looking for an alternative that works

We have an Amazon kids tablet that we use for roadtrips that has been pretty good

We had a Kindle fire and you can download the Google store (takes a couple steps) to get Hulu and all the others on it.

Get a second hand iPad. No one I know is happy with their fire tablet

This. We tried for so long to make the fire tablet work, it just isn’t worth the hassle.

Another vote for a second hand iPad. We gave our kids our old iPads when we were ready to upgrade ours. We wiped them, bought heavy duty cases, and installed just the apps we approve and also set up controls so they can’t download anything themselves. It took a bit of work to set them up (maybe a couple hours?) but the performance is great and we know exactly how to use them. Nanny and Grandad have a Fire tablet and it’s so confusing to me (a person who has used Apple products exclusively, to be fair.)

FYI depends on how old. I had to clear my son’s iPad and when I went to re-download Netflix I couldn’t - the IOS isn’t supported anymore since it’s older.

Although in that time she has started communicating less and I literally had to beg her to get on face time. My gut says she wants to end it but unsure. Any advice ?

I’m looking for advice on a project on presidents that I do with my kids every year. See comment below for more info (not enough space here to type).

My partner of 5 years ended our relationship last night. I’m shattered and feel absolutely sick, and I know the healing isn’t going to be easy. We were on the verge of an engagement and I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him.

I don’t know how to approach work during this time. I think I can get by, but I’m definitely not 100%. Should I talk to my boss about it? My team is close-knit and comfortable around each other, but I don’t know if it’s “appropriate.” What would you do?
