A Mixed Bag for My Kid: Smart Play Pad Review

summarizeEditor's Summary

I gotta say, the Smart Play Pad is a great choice for kids who love learning and showing off their skills. My kid's obsessed with egg toys and the alphabet, and this tablet delivers. It's easy to use, comes in a box, and is perfect for kids just starting to learn how to use a tablet. However, it's not without its drawbacks. After a week of using it, I've noticed a few things that might be worth considering. For one, the battery life could be longer - I've had to charge it more frequently than I'd like. The icons are a bit small, which can make it hard to navigate at times. It's not the sturdiest tablet out there, so you'll want to be careful with it. The customer support is decent, but not the best I've ever dealt with. The return policy is a bit confusing, so be sure to read the fine print. Shipping was a bit slower than I expected, but it arrived in good condition.

As a parent, you know every kid is unique - some love toy cars, while others go crazy for dolls. But the truth is, there's no rule that says boys have to like cars and girls have to like dolls.
My kid, for instance, is obsessed with all sorts of egg toys and learning the alphabet. They really enjoy toys that let them show off their knowledge, and I'm glad we got the Smart Play Pad as a gift.
One thing I appreciated about the Smart Play Pad is that it comes in a box, making it a fantastic gift option for kids who love to learn and show off their skills. The price and where to buy weren't concerns for us, since we received it as a gift.
The tablet itself is basically an iPad-style format - easy to use and navigate, just like you'd expect. It's perfect for kids who are just starting to learn how to use a tablet.
Smart Play PadWith the Smart Play Pad, you can learn not just Russian letters, but also numbers and the English alphabet. There are also a few testing games, and even a grammar study section. It's a great way to keep learning fun and engaging for kids.
Smart Play PadThe tablet runs on three batteries, which is pretty cool. And the best part? They last a really long time, probably due to the lack of light effects. I'm impressed by the battery life.
Smart Play PadThe batteries can be safely hidden, thanks to a screw that secures the lid. This is a huge plus, especially for little ones who might try to open it. It's a thoughtful design feature.
At the back, there's also a small speaker that adds to the overall learning experience. The sound quality could be better, but it gets the job done.
Smart Play PadPowering on and off is done with a button, just like the original. If you or a kid doesn't turn it off, it'll shut down after a few minutes, saying 'bye' first. It takes some getting used to, but it's not a deal-breaker.
By the way, the tablet also greets you with a 'hello.' To be more precise, it says 'hello, let's play?' You can switch to English, and it'll greet you in English too. It's a nice touch.
Smart Play PadThere's also a lock button (not functional, just for show) and, praise the gods, a working volume control. This is a huge relief, especially when you're trying to keep the noise level down. The volume control is a lifesaver.
One thing to note: when you turn off the tablet, the volume settings get reset. So, it goes back to being loud again. I just leave it as is, since kids love turning the tablet on and off while playing.
Smart Play PadThe buttons are easy to press, but they're touch-sensitive, not raised. My kid tries to press them harder, but it doesn't always work. You need to press them very lightly for them to register.
Smart Play PadWe have a few of these toys, and our favorite is the sticker chart. The Smart Play Pad gets picked up significantly less often, which is a bit of a shame. The icons are too small, and there's too much information packed into each one.
Other downsides include the woman's diction when reading letters and words. It's especially noticeable when my kid turns on the 'find a letter' game. I make mistakes too. A 30-year-old aunt can't even find a letter on this tablet. The sound quality might be affecting the diction.
Overall, the Smart Play Pad is a decent learning tool, but it's not perfect. If you're looking for a similar tablet, I'd say go for one with a single language. Having two languages, but with different orientations, makes it easier for your kid to focus.
Fast forward to the learning part. We've managed to learn almost the entire alphabet by now, and we're still only 2.5 years old (yes, we still can't talk properly). But the kid's got the hang of letters and numbers. The thing is, he enjoys the process of learning, and that's what matters most.
He loves it when we sit down to draw, talk, and find letters. But let's be honest, we learned all this without the tablet or flashcards. They're just a way to keep things interesting and varied. Plus, having a personal device definitely makes it more appealing to him.
