When Apple unveiled its iPad in January 2010, the idea of handing over a touch screen gadget costing at least to a sticky-fingered child seemed ridiculous. Two years later, tablets – and smart phones – are now well established as pass-on devices, with an increasing number of apps available for children of all ages.

In July, Disney commissioned a survey of 2,000 British parents who owned an app-capable device and found that 75% share them with their children; 56% said they had downloaded an app at the request of their kids; and 37% considered apps to be an "integral" part of their family life. There are hundreds of developers making apps for kids, from games and story books to maths and phonics apps. This isn't just about absorbing information, though: there are apps for children to make music, draw and share digital pictures and record their own voices reading favorite stories.

And with new companies such as Toca Boca and Nosy Crow establishing their reputations, parents are spoiled for choice, with more apps appearing every month.

This may change, thanks to impressive Android tablets such as Google's Nexus 7 and Amazon's Kindle Fire, which is tipped to be released in the UK later this year.
