Launchpads are secure learning tablets designed specifically for children and teens. They are preloaded with ad-free STEAM, language-learning, art, and music apps selected by experienced curriculum experts. Subject areas on the Launchpads meet widely recognized learning objectives, ranging from math and science to critical thinking and creativity. Designed to capture the attention and imaginations of children and teens, the themed learning packs include popular kids’ characters, animals, vehicles, marine life, and more. They do not have WiFi access or a camera and parents can be assured that their children will have a safe, secure, and controlled learning experience.
