Since its introduction in 2010, the iPad has quickly become an iconic device — a user-friendly, compact, versatile, and powerful tablet computer that packs a real punch in terms of its functionality. And with tens of thousands of animated picture books, games, and educational apps available, this widely used tool is ideal for children in many ways. But the idea of a child using an iPad can be daunting for parents: how do you know what they are using it for, what are they looking at on the web, and who they communicating with? A Parent's Guide to the iPad in Easy Steps breaks down the iPad’s capabilities so that parents can understand how their children are using it, and also make the most of it themselves. Covering a range of topics — education, games, photos, music, creativity, and social networking — this indispensable guide ensures that children get the most out of the iPad safely and successfully.
This second edition has been updated to cover the latest operating system, iOS 6 and the latest iPad (4th generation), as well as the 3rd generation and iPad 2.
