The HUAWEI MatePad T8 Kids Edition is on sale now with lots of freebies, too!
We’re in our second year of online distance learning (ODL), with parents also busy juggling work-from-home arrangements coupled with parenting duties and household responsibilities. More often than not, and since there are hardly any rest periods for mommies and daddies at home, we have to admit that we tend to extend the screen time of our children while we’re ticking off our long to-do list.
But is longer screen time okay? The current ODL the children are all in proves that it’s not that bad, as long as the interaction goes both ways. Even after class, children still cling on to their gadgets for some down time—be it watching their favorite shows or playing interactive games offline or with friends. With children still not allowed to go outdoors, going online has helped keep them (and even parents) sane despite being stuck within the four corners of the house.
This current scenario that we are all in has led parents to purchase one gadget each for every family member, including children. Sharing tablets is not possible anymore since parents need it for work while the children need it for school. Having an assigned gadget for each family member also lessens the access of children to adult content and purchasing of unwarranted items from apps found in the parents’ gadgets.
Having one gadget each also has its fair share of problems such as limiting gadget use, making sure what they can view is age-appropriate, and eye strain from longer screen time. This is where the HUAWEI MatePad T8 Kids Edition comes in. It’s the very first gadget in the Philippines that is designed for kids ages three to eight years old. Here’s why we love it.
Safe and fun tactile materials
Made with food-grade materials with environmentally safe silicone, the colorful blue shell and green grips make it comfortable to use for the smallest of hands. The tablets also come with curved backs that make it easier to hold on to. Less gadget drops mean less stress for parents as well.
The colorful green-and-blue combination makes learning fun. It even comes with a bright blue stylus pen to make it more fun for the kids. The bright green grip handle can also be easily flipped, making it hands-free. The case and the stylus passed the European Standards on the Safety of Toys and Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS), so we are assured that safety is part of the brand’s top concerns.
Parental assistant
Worried about extended screen time and having not enough time to accompany and guide the kids while they are using their tablets? HUAWEI MatePad T8 Kids Edition has got these down pat as it has many parental assistance features that keep our minds at ease and make us worry less about how our children are doing on their own. Manage the time they spend on the tablet, even what apps are allowed. You can also have different settings for weekdays and weekends. Parents can also backtrack and evaluate screen time habits via the Kid’s Profile.
Eye protection
It also comes with multi-layer eye protection such as blue light filter, bumpy road alerts, eBook reading mode, and posture alerts, which can all be switched on and off in the Kids Corner. Discrete eye protection mode helps adjust the color while the ambient light sensor assists layered eye protection. It also has a built-in gravity sensor which serves as a posture reminder for when the user is lying down while watching.
Out on the road? Huawei did think of everything as it can also detect if the user is walking or riding a car. The gadget reminds the user to use them only when it’s stable. This helps in developing better reading/viewing habits. Your child fond of reading eBooks? This tablet can also adjust contrast, brightness, sharpness, saturation, color temperature, grayscale and other parameters on display.
Vast educational content

We can search and download from the HUAWEI AppGallery. So many educational and interactive apps to choose from, the possibilities are endless for our children to keep on learning—even when they’re “just” at home.
With so many child-friendly features, parents can now have peace of mind that their children are in good hands with the HUAWEI MatePad 8 Kids Edition. It’s the very first tablet in the Philippines that prioritizes quality online learning that is fun and safe for children from ages three to eight years old.
