It’s a fully realized drawing tablet with plenty of space to create, and we think it’s the best all-round option for value, size, design and features. While younger children will only need the small edition, older kids will prefer the larger medium model and you can connect a Logitech keyboard to make more of this tablet, particularly if you're using it with a display tablet or smartphone.This will sound small compared to other tablets, but when you’re using the device’s outer bezel for gripping without touching the touchscreen and the addition of eight chunky buttons down the left hand side, makes this a very usable tablet. They generally respond with great accuracy – if, of course, you can get used to looking up at a screen while drawing. As such, graphics tablets are the perfect choice for frequent travellers, so long as you have access to external monitors or laptops to which you can connect them.

However, if you’re looking for a more professional experience, then they can’t quite deliver Wacom-level results, and unlike pen tablets and displays, general-use tablets won't offer textured work surfaces for a more natural, pen-to-paper drawing experience.Since most tablets offer a pen by default, with only a few upgrade options, finding one that feels right is as important as any aspect of the tablet itself.

The Wacom One packs much of the same great tech you'd find in the larger, more expensive Wacom drawing tablets into a small package.

It's a general purpose tablet made with children in mind, and it just happens to provide a decent drawing surface, too.Ever since Apple Pencil support came to the iPad Mini, the littlest iPad has been our top choice as a pocket-sized all-in-one drawing platform, and its petite dimension mean that it also ranks as a brilliant – if expensive – drawing tablet for kids. Once the position of the pen is determined, the information is sent to the computer (if the tablet is connected) or to the built-in processor (if the tablet is standalone).
