How much is actually educational for real on an iPad vs. fun, pretty, cool, keep 'em busy type of thing? I'm asking for my 4-almost-5 (see threads in Learning Environments). We've resisted the iPad but are considering getting one just for apps (no data plan). Would it be worth it? We are totally iPad naive and also have never used iPhones. The only other thing we'd get it for is electronic music composition, which DH is quite into--we hear there is some great stuff for that. I am NOT interested in games for the sake of games. We already have a Wii if we want that.
