This thing is like 70 bucks online and that’s the LOWEST it gets somebody please help😭
I forgot my old login for my account so I’m posting this on a fresh account cus I’ve been completely stumped. i feel like the only one that monitors what my 7 year old autistic sister plays on her tablet because I started noticing how she repeats adverts telling her to download kids games “for free”. These ‘free games’ only have one small feature she can play and then the rest of it is either locked behind subscriptions or a one time purchase for an ad-free version of the game. I’ve noticed that practically ALL the damn games on her iPad she downloads are these kinds of games and my mom does not pay attention to this as she has even attempted to purchase micro transactions before. There are parental locks on her iPad now so it just doesn’t automatically approve it but it annoys me to see her trying to play any game on her iPad and seeing all these locked features that keep convincing her to try to pay because then she just Downloads even MORE useless games that have nothing to offer her unless we pay to unlock the rest of it.
I also just don’t like the habit it’s starting to become to go into the App Store of devices she has access to in the house to download more random shit so now she starts alternating between screens with no regulation. Or sometimes using two screens at once. And my mom is just becoming increasingly more unaware of how much she does this. I don’t know if it’s that big of a deal but I’m not trying to treat her differently from a neurotypical child because she is very smart but I just don’t want her to fry her own attention span when she already has trouble focusing
I’m planning on cleaning out most of the games on her iPad and replacing them with games that actually engage and encourage her to learn without bombarding her with a bunch of crap but I could use some suggestions if any that at least do not contain in-app purchases. I’ve heard Apple Arcade is a good choice but I’d also like suggestions that engage her to read and use her critical thinking skills. She also likes to colour and draw a lot so any free apps like that would be nice as well.
Thank you in advance :)
