Hi, looking for a tablet that my son can use to play fairly basic flash games on - thinking at the moment of the cbeebies website games or the friv website.
Tried a couple in carphone warehouse, they started to load the games but seemed to freeze and the games never appeared...no expert but wondered if the processor not good enough?
If anyone has any suggestions of tablets that will work I'd be grateful.

Hey goodisongirl (are you a blue by chance!?)
I'm not sure you'll find a tablet that plays flash games such as the ones from the cbeebies website very well at all. The problem is that they are designed for the desktop browser version of flash which is quite different from the mobile flash version available for Android on a tablet. Some games may play, many won't, those that do play won't play very well.
A tablet will play native games much much better than any flash games. There are tons of games can be downloaded from Google Play (the Android App Store). I'm not sure how many are suitable for young children though...0
