We bought our daughter an iPad Air 5. She’s 10, and is somewhat accident prone. She had been using an Otterbox Defender on her old iPad, and it worked well.

She wanted something more colorful for the Air though - a case more geared towards kids as opposed to the plain black of Otterbox.

Any suggestions? Thanks

Have you looked at the Otterbox kids' cases? They look pretty colorful and protective.
Thanks. I didn't know those existed. However, they seem to be for the iPad 9th gen only.

We got my daughter an iPad air.

"child proof ipad air case 5th generation" gets several hits on Amazon.

Oops, sorry missed the Air 5 part of your original post. Lucky 10 year old to have one!

Well, she’s a great kid, and our only child. She’s responsible, but she’s still somewhat accident prone ha. I bought the AppleCare+ using the educator’s discount as well.

We ordered a case that seems pretty good. It does give off those “rainbow spots” on the built-in screen protector though. I created a different thread asking about those.

Thanks
