Q. We are going on a trip soon and I would like to get a ipad headrest mount that all the kids can see from the backseat and is a reasonable price. Anyone have Suggestions?
A. I recommend the Gripdaddy for that. Its supposed to be the best mount and You would probably want one that mounts between the seats if you have a van or SUV so everyone can see it.
Is there an iPad case that would make it easier to hold and protects at the same time for a toddler?
Q. My 20 months old daughter loves playing with my iPad. But since the iPad has sharp edges,it is very uncomfortable for her to hold it. So I need a lightweight case that makes it easier to hold for her. Also, it needs to be protective at the same time. We already broke one :(. All the cases I've tried either too bulky, ugly or simply don't protect the iPad from breakage. Please advise!
A. Letâs start with the Griffin Survivor. Not specifically made for kids but tough enough to outlast them!
The Griffin Survivor is actually said to protect an iPad (and they have the records of their tests to prove it) if dropped on flat concrete for a height of 6â². It passed their wind/rain test: 1 hour at 200 mm/hr. But they didnât stop there. It passed a rigorous vibration test: 18 hrs at 20 â 2000 Hz. And then just because they could they put it through a sand/dust test of 3 hrs at up to 18 meters/sec and passed that too!
Next we take a look at the Gumdrop kid-friendly iPad case.
First off we want to show you the Otterbox Defender.
Since it was featured going up against the Gumdrop in the video above we thought weâd show you the Otterbox Defender. Otterbox has long been known for the cases it produces and the same can be said for this series of iPad cases. The one main complaint I heard and read repeatedly was that users donât like the screen protector on this iPad case.
While the Otterbox Defender gets 4.5 out of 5 stars the screen protector, which is built in and cannot be removed gets the most complaints. The pros and cons listed below pretty much sum it up:
Pros
The case is rugged and fits well with access to all of the ports
Cover that doubles as stand is nice
Cons
Poor quality screen protector
Screen protector cannot be removed
poor instructions for case removal
screen protector seems to float above the screen giving a âticâ sound when pressing and releasing at times
Letâs look at the Big Grips Frame:
The biggest thing that we found everyone said about this kid-friendly iPad case is that its big a SQUISHY! This durable, lightweight cover is not only secure and very grip-able, itâs non-toxic, lead and latex-free, phthalate and PVC free. So you donât have to worry if your child puts it into their mouth. One review on the Amazon site has a father of an autistic son saying that he was having a bad day. He had his ipad with him in the car watching a movie. As we were driving, he rolled down the window and threw out his iPad! When we got to the iPad it was not damaged and still playing the movie. Thank goodness I had purchased the Big Grip just days before. Iâm sure I would be out an iPad had I bought another case.
The Big Grips Frame only has seven reviews but those that have it love it and give it a big thumbs up with 4.9 out of 5 stars. The two reviews that gave it 4 instead of 5 stars cites the difficulty of plugging in cables while the cover is in place because of its thickness. Anyone that uses a cover on any iDevice knows that feeling and unfortunately itâs a trade off for protection no matter how thick.
The Big Grips Frame is available for all versions of the iPad.
When we asked a group of reviewers that specialize in childrenâs apps the iPad case that invariably was mentioned along with the Griffin Survivor is the Gumdrop. The Gumdrop cases are made to withstand just about anything a child might dish out.
Durable cover provides complete security
Constructed from soft silicone and tough polycarbonate for drop protection
Easy-grip surface texture
Reinforced rubber corners and port protectors
Replaceable snap-on screen cover is easy to clean
ext up is the Disney Hybrid Case and Kit:
If you have a child that loves the movie Cars they are going to love this iPad case! In bright red with checkered flags and a stylus thrown in that matches it completes the whole look while protecting your device. Of course itâs not something you are going to want to keep on your iPad all the time but then you wonât want the big lime green squishy one on there either. The strap for holding it onto your carâs headrest is a nice bonus too.
Pass-through touch screen provides 360 degree protection defends against scratches and sticky fingers
Included nylon strap securely fastens Kid Kit to car headrest and doubles as carrying strap
Included themed stylus
Built in stand enables portrait and landscape viewing
The biggest complaint is that when in place the case obstructs the use of the volume buttons. Other than that users give it 4.6 out of 5 stars.
The Universal foam inserts make this kid-friendly iPad case suitable for your original iPad or iPad 2.
Ektopad e1341854499660 Eleven Kid Friendly iPad Cases [Review]Ekto2:
While we are not familiar with the Ekto brand the users that purchased it seem to like it. It looks very similar to others we have seen and the cushioning seems adequate also. Hereâs a video the company released showing it being dropped. Note though that they never drop it on itâs screen.
What are some things to do on a 10 hour plane ride to Florida?
Q. On Friday I am flying to Sanford Airport from Manchester Airport and I need some ideas of things to do on the plane. I am 13 years do and a girl, and I enjoy reading. If you have any books to recommend then I will be very grateful
[Edit]
I have been to Florida once before when I was nine, but I can't really remember what I did then :s Thanks :)
I also am going to sleep, but not all the time. I need some ideas of what to do when I am awake?
A. I went on a long plane ride last summer with two teen girls.
First, try to adjust your sleep schedule a day or so before you leave so that it will help you sleep on the plane some and help you adjust to the time difference.
Second, hopefully you get lucky- for the long portion of our trip from the USA to Seoul (before flying on to China), we had personal entertainment in the back of the headrests of the seats in front of us. It was complimentary, even in coach, since it was an international flight. You could play games, watch movies/television and listen to music- even creating your own playlist. They had a good selection of options. We did not have that on the way back, unfortunately- it definitely made the flight seem longer.
Do you have an iPhone or other smartphone, or an iPad or other tablet? If so, utilize that. You may be able to access WiFi for at least part of the flight so while you can not call or text via cellular communications, you could use apps to do so and also use Facebook and other apps that require a connection. Even without WiFi you can access the books, games, music, and television/movies on your device.
Since you mention liking to read, I HIGHLY recommend Little Princes by Conor Grennan.
