Flash on Android Devices

While out shopping today, we decided to play with the latest tablets. While watching the kids check out the tablets, I realized that the kids can only play primarygames.com and mostfungames.com on the Android devices. We tried it on the iPad, but since it will not play Adobe Flash content, they could not play any of the games on those sites.

This made me wonder about the other learning Web sites that they use at school. I quickly found that the majority of those site contain Flash content and simply do not work on the iOS devices -- iPod, iPad, and iPhone.

I asked my fourth-grade son which tablet he liked better and he said (holding a Samsung Android tablet), "This one because it will play the games!"

I get asked frequently by parents which tablet us best for their kids. I routinely tell them that it is a personal preference, but it appears that the Android devices do more of what my kids want to do online.
