What an account adds

The activities are the easy half. The half that makes a computer safe to hand a child is the part you cannot try on a page.

Time that runs out on its own

Minutes per day and per week, and hours of the day they apply. The session ends itself, so it is the computer saying no rather than you.

A profile for each child

Their own PIN, their own progress, their own list of what they may open — and it follows them from the tablet to the television.
