Tax Tip #1: Shop Laptops And Tablets For Kids
If you’ve got school-aged children, they’ll need a laptop or device to help with homework and learning. The best time to get your kids the equipment they need is in the EOFY sales, when you can snag a bargain.
High-school kids will be able to tackle all their study on an Apple Macbook Air, which is great for running creative programs like Photoshop that many schools now teach students how to use.
Younger kids could benefit from a tablet like the Microsoft Surface Pro X, a super lightweight and easily portable tablet. Little ones can use it for streaming online classes and completing their homework, moving effortlessly between their desk and the couch.
If you’re not sure whether to get your child a laptop or a tablet for school, you might want to opt for a 2-in-1 laptop, which offers the best of both worlds. Devices like the HP Pavilion x360 14” allow kids to take notes and write assignments using the laptop’s keyboard, then convert to tablet mode when they’re away from their desk and just want to play.
