Congrats to Lisa (lisarandy5@….)
We love our iPad… especially Nora!
We take it almost everywhere we go as it easily fits in the diaper bag or any other bag we take with us. Plus, it’s perfect clutter-free “toy” to occupy Nora if we end up waiting longer than we thought at the doctor, if she gets antsy at one of Dave’s basketball games, or if we have a longer than normal road trip.
There are enough games, coloring books, photos, videos, and TV programs to keep her entertained for a week if need be!
Recently, I was given one of the brand new Martha Stewart iPad cases to try… and I was immediately excited as I noticed how user-friendly it was AND that it easily attached to the back of a car headrest (why didn’t someone think of that sooner!)
Out of the three of us, I use the iPad the least (if you’re wondering, Dave uses it the most) and even I was impressed with this case. It’s quite thin, but still very durable and sturdy. It’s also extremely easy to operate and adjust for increased functionality and usability.
A few more reasons we love this case:
- It’s a smart case, so it automatically turns the iPad on and off
- It quickly and easily rotates vertically and horizontally without removing the case
- It easily attaches to a car headrest
- The outside is nice soft leather but the part that actually surronds the iPad is hard — so I feel like it’s really protected
- We can easily access the camera, the volume buttons and the charging port without taking the case off (you would think this should be obvious, but this is not always the case)
- It’s very sturdy, but light weight — and balances perfectly on a toddler’s lap 🙂
Spring break is just around the corner (it starts Friday for Dave’s school) and summer travels will be here before you know it. If you’d like a nice, new, protective case for your iPad (and an entertainment option for long road trips), you’ll definitely want to enter today’s giveaway!

I use our iPad to browse the Internet, look up recipes, news, etc. It is so much more Convenient than the laptop these days. And it is helping us become more paperless.
Erin says
If we ever get one I expect the most use will be craft blogs, recipes, and toddler entertainment. Of course “facetime” with far away family members is good too.

I don’t have an IPad yet. I have a Kindle Fire though. If I win this Ipad case, maybe I’ll get an Ipad for it! I use my Kindle Fire wi-fi for Words with Friends and Draw Something, I have over 100 books from Freebooksy.com to read. I use it for all my important notes, recipes, calendar, organizer, etc.

I use my iPad for my mini computer, but my favorite thing to do with it, is download games and videos for my great grandson who is almost 3. He has been using an ipad for over a year and we only see him about twice a month, but he always asks me what I have on it for him. He enjoys watching dinosaurs and farm animals and other teaching tools. The case would be wonderful to have!!!
