Educational, Fun, and Secure Tablets
Designed for Kids!

Playaway Launchpads come preloaded with a mix of educational and fun content centered on a theme.

They are 100% secure with no risk for unintended content and do not require an internet connection. Each tablet has a 7-inch screen and circulates with a protective bumper case.

Our initial collection of Launchpads is made possible thanks in part to a generous donation by the Ho-Ho-Kus Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary. A huge thank you is owed to them for their support.
