I use an iPad3. We still have an OG iPad, though, that my youngest son (3) uses occasionally for games. That OG iPad has been thrown, dropped, drooled on and so much more and is nearly indestructible, I'm convinced. My 3-year old is the 3rd boy to play on it. I got it and used it regularly when it first came out, but when our first son came along, it quickly became a 'kids' device'.
