‘The iPad was really interactive for
the nursery, and it was really good
being able to take the iPad outdoors
and all around nursery’ Amy
‘The children loved using the
cameras at the farm and used a lot
more language than they usually do.
I enjoyed learning to use the iPads’
Sangita

develop hand-eye coordination. The
children enjoyed the touch screen. I

light. It has many uses. And it fits in
your handbag!’ Yvette

how to use iPads more quickly
than us!’ Rabina
