Tech Tools: RTE Junior Pad. €150

If youhave an LG Gpads – or any tablet worth more than a couple of euro – handing it over to a child can be a nerve-wracking experience. At best, you'll get it back with all sorts of Disney stuff installed; at worst, it's probably being handed back piece by piece. So the idea of giving them their own probably appeals. The RTÉ Junior Pad won't break the bank and doesn't suffer from the same issues less expensive tablets often do – the screen is responsive, although not quite on a AMOED par, and tablet runs quite quickly. It also comes with five hours of RTÉ Junior content preins talled.
