@ and /\ (Christmas) related - tablets for kids

[WOT?*]

That's supposed to be a Christmas tree.

I was thinking about getting learning tablets for each of the grands (7, 7 and 9) for Christmas. TRU has some with mediocre ratings and I think Vtech and LeapFrog might be a little too young for them. Anyone have recommendations for tablets that are suitable for kids?

I don't want to go iPad pricepoints, obviously, since they're kids. I'd like to keep it at under $150 if possible. (The 9 y.o. already has a basic Kindle and Walkman MP3 player and while she takes okay care of it, she's lost the charging cord and stuff like that. None of them are prime examples of "taking care of stuff" kind of kids. I'm not ready to go top-of-the-line until they're a bit older.)
