Family FAQ

You asked:

Can you recommend where to find inexpensive laptops designed just for kids?

The Online Family answers:

Many laptops for kids are pre-loaded with special software, or don't connect to the Net, but they do function like a laptop and can be useful for teaching your child how to use one. The educational company Leapfrog sells a laptop-like computer for young kids that costs about $60. VTech has a line of laptops for kids that range from $39.99 to $79.99. Even Barbie has her own branded laptop for under $50.
