..it is a well made case. Provided s good protection against drops. My 9 yr old son's tablet has survived 2 yrs so far. I do not see tearing of the joints either.

I believe it will protect it very well. I have one and it gives sturdy protection. You should be happy if you get this.

Yes, it will be perfect for a child. Once the tablet is in it is very secure almost even to hard to get out. There's a huge velcro lacth tucked in behind the tablet pocket and not easily open

No it will protect I dropped my phone plenty of times with this case and it never broke or cracked.

No, it protects your iPod very well. I've dropped my iPod numerous times and it is fine.

my son is 12 and drops his phone a lot. I have had no issues at all. So I would say yes...it would protect it

My daughter has one and its protects hers very well just be careful when you open the back flaps to uncover the camera and other buttons you need to get to as these will tear off it you are very rough with them.. Just treat them gental and it will work fine she has dropped hers many times and its has protected well.. Just remember they are not water proof and nothing is indestuctable if it is mistreated..

It may be slim but protective....unless ur going to drop it everyday, three times a day, it will get the job done

I haven't dropped mine, but the case deff feels durable and sturdy. You should be safe against minor drops.

No, it offers little protection against drops. Basically, protects against scratches only.

It does protect. A defender case would protect better for a child or circumstances like that. This one is elegant and light but sill protects the iPad.

It protects it greatly. The sides are very spongy so when phone falls ( if you happen to let fall purposely), it will be well protected. I have never dropped my phone but there is always a first time for everything right?

My son has dropped it a couple times and no harm, but a really hard fall and this would break just like any tablet or phone might.

��� it's good my daughter is 2 and she drops my phone at times. But u would want a more protective case after awhile I rotate my cases.

It is designed to be the most protective PROFESSIONAL case. If there were iPads and cases when I was a six-year-old boy, my Mom would've bought me a LifeProof or Otter Box case for sure. If your boy will be using it frequently, get one of those. But if it is your iPad and he'll occasionally be handling it, then yes, it should be adequate. No spillage protection, but full corner protection. Note, though, that it is not designed to cushion impacts, but only be a layer in between the device and the ground.

It's done pretty well for us... As drops go... I would be afraid if a little one threw it... So far our devise has survived a few drops... It also depends on what edge it lands on... The bottom is substantially thicker/better protection than the top. Hope you find this helpful.. Jc

It is absolutely worth it AND it will hold up brilliantly to a 4 year old! I have three girls, ages 7,4,1, and they have dropped my Kindle Fire in its Gumdrop case and it has never flinched. My brother-in-law is an electrician and he uses an iPad on the job site that uses a Gumdrop case. His iPad has been kept super safe for over a year now. I figure if it's tough enough for a construction job site, it will have no problem with a 4 year old :). Hope this helps!

I use it on my children's tablets. So far it has protected well. It's not going to protect like an otterbox, as far as falls go. But if you purchase the next book at walmart it's $109 total with insurance and all.

I got it for my thirteen ur old she dropped it a few times and it didn't hurt her phone. Seems thicker than most phone cases.not an otter box,but done its job. Ears come on and off and they fold in so they can go in pockets
