Now-a-days kids are becoming more gadget freak as compared to adults. They want to try all the gadgets with latest technology. Today market is full of electronic stuff and with lots of options. The famous gadgets among kids are ipad, iphone, kinect, xbox or anything with touch screen. Kids love to slide their tiny fingers on touch screens.
My friend gifted her daughter an ipad on her birthday. I had always imagined small girls with Barbie dolls but to see a girl with ipad in her hand was quite a shock. No matter how complicated the technology is, kids can get hold of anything. Gone are the days when video games used to come in cassettes and were played with remotes. Now the video games are highly sophisticated, they work on motion sensing devices. Wave your hand and the bunny inside the video game will also wave the hand. 8-10 years back it would have looked like a dream but now it is a reality.
I visited croma (electronic items outlet) yesterday and there were lots of kids checking out the latest technologies. They were checking all the gadgets and knew how to use them very well. Today kids have access to all these items and their brains work in a different manner. When we were kids, we were happy with barbies, kitchen sets, tops, badminton etc., but now kids want all the hi-tech and advanced gadgets.
Search “Kids and gadgets” on google and you will find a list of gadgets which a kid must have. Now companies will tell the parents what gadgets their kids must have. Ipad tops this list followed by playstation. Today walkman is replaced with mp3 player or ipod, PC with laptops or ipads and video games with xbox. Parents should keep a check on these gadgets and their impact on kids. Kids should not become dependent on the gadgets and it is the parents’ responsibility to make sure their kids don’t get habitual of these gadgets.
