I think that you should ask kid’s parents before you get them a technology related toy. I think that because some parents have different opinions about their kids using the computer. A lot of parents think that if it’s educational then its great but if its social they are a little bit skeptical. “Just as you wouldn’t spring a puppy on a family as a surprise, you should check in with parents before you give a tech toy.”

You wouldn’t ask a parent to get a board game but you would you were getting them a cell phone. That’s because a board game they always know who they are playing with and a person can’t stalk you from a board game. But you would ask to buy them a cell phone because any one can call you and you can call any one.

The first article that I read was about how kids were getting thing like stuffed animals that connects to the internet but the parents didn’t know that it connected to the internet and when they found out about it they weren’t sure that they liked it. They wanted their kids to have it but their wasn’t a lot that they could do about it. See the link above to read the entire article.

There are bad ways that people could use toys that can connect to the internet but there is also there is good ways too. One of the good ways is that some companies make toys that help younger kids learn. Why kids use these toys is they aren’t complicated and they are made especially for kids there age. Here is a link that explains more.

Ithink that little kids learning about how to use computers is a good thing because then they can understand it more when they are older and feel more conferrable on the internet when they are older, but I also think that if kids are on the computer it is not good because then they won’t do anything else and they will be lazy and out of shape. “Allowing children to access technology at an early age will allow them to be far more discerning and feel more comfortable with the technology they will need in the future.”

hat is why you should ask the parents and you should know about the toy that you want to buy for a kid.
