We got my daughter the nabi Tablet and have been very happy with it. Mostly
identical to nexus 7 with a few additional hardware outputs but geared for
kids and doesn't have the normal Android Play Store.

Android tablets are a lot easier to use than the iPad IMO. Its so
irritating on the iPad when you want to search on a web page because they
don't have that feature. For instance. (Like iPad, nabi tab also didn't
have flash but other android tablets have. Guess its a concerted effort to
kill the superior technology.)
