IPad: the perfect computing device for children?

I guess I should create an app that plays a Chopin piece when you touch the screen. Then parents can buy it and imagine their kids are genii.<p>Just saying... But of course it is interesting how kids can interact with computers, no question.

Things like this make me so sad. Why not give that kid fingercolours? Or a xylophone? Make him experience the real world instead of simulation of something hidden behind a screen.

This is part of the reason I bought an iPad. My daughter has speech issues and playing some of the games has helped her a lot.

If the iPad had LOGO on it, that 10 week old baby could be learning how to program and understand the real power of computing devices.

iPad should come out with Disney specific version (in pink for girls and in red/blue for boys). Consider the opportunities, an inbuilt iTunes store with all superhero / Cinderella type cartoons [they will learn to pay for the content from the childhood itself no need for RIAA / MPAA lawsuits], there is so much opportunity in this field, I can totally see kids harrowing their parents for one. Wonder how Steve jobs hasn't already began producing one.
