Galaxy Tablets: Smarter, More Meaningful Learning Through Play

The Galaxy Tab S9 Series is your ideal homework buddy

In an era where digital devices have become omnipresent in our lives, digital means for entertainment present the opportunity to unlock endless educational possibilities for children using tablets, according to a recent SEAO Gen Alpha (Youth) Digital Lift and Insights Study conducted by Samsung and youth-focused media platform TotallyAwesome^[1].

The Galaxy Tab S9 Series is the perfect companion that provides modern ways to help nurture young minds and foster intellectual growth. With the One UI 6.1 update, the tablet can now be equipped with Samsung’s latest Galaxy AI features, making them a great tool for parents looking to provide opportunities for their children to engage with content more meaningfully, and to take the learning experience for young ones to the next level.

Igniting imagination and creativity

Cultivating creativity and a sense of imagination is also found to be important among parent tablet owners when they choose what their children play with, and the Galaxy Tab S9 series is a great avenue for children to begin their experimentation and exploration journey.

With Photo Assist, parents can guide children in using their imagination to create something new and fun by simply relocating parts of an image – for instance, children can play around with wallpapers by shifting subjects such as astronauts closer together in the galaxy – and then allow Generative Edit^[3] to intelligently fill in the space left behind.

The Galaxy Tab S9 Series also comes with an S Pen, a tool that allows parents to give a child the freedom to draw on a canvas without creating a mess. This is further elevated on Samsung Notes[4]. From simple doodles to creating a photo journal by adding photos and highlighting in a variety of styles and colors with the S Pen, these tablets are the perfect companion for when creativity strikes.

Inculcating problem solving

While studying may seem to be a chore, Galaxy tablets can better engage and excite children with new ways to learn logical thinking, which ranks as the next priority for parents who own tablets (38%)^[1].

Explore new ways to problem solve with your child using Circle to Search with Google. Activate Circle to Search with Google^[5] on your Galaxy Tab S9 Series to get handy and high-quality search results. You can also follow up with more complex and nuanced questions to get even clearer answers to the problem at hand, such as different ways to solve the same equation.

Transform messy handwriting into readable digital text in a flash

Together, parents can demonstrate smarter problem-solving by breaking down homework problems with the S Pen in Samsung Notes with Handwriting Mode. Your workings can be straightened, cut, copied, resized and even converted to text, for clearer takeaways at the end of the study session.

Engaging, big-screen magic

Level up your children’s play with epic, cinematic visuals^[6]

Undoubtedly, the Galaxy tablets can be used for providing entertainment to children, especially when parents are busy or need a break. For instance, the Galaxy Tab S9 Series tablets come with an expansive Dynamic AMOLED 2X display that is sure to keep the little ones occupied with crisp and lifelike content, thanks to HDR10+ enhanced visuals and smooth scrolling at up to 120Hz refresh rate.

A common playtime activity that parents tend to engage in with their children is playing mobile and console games (80%)^[1], and the Galaxy S9 Series tablets take it to the next level with expansive screens and immersive audio from the quad AKG speaker system and Dolby Atmos surround sound.

A top concern for parents when it comes to their children’s use of electronic devices is the amount of screen time and the kind of video content that they are viewing. With the Galaxy tablets, parents can easily restrict usage using settings on Parental controls on Google’s Family Link app. This allows parents to control the apps that their children can access, keep an eye on how long they use their phone or tablet, and set limits for screen time.

It’s worth highlighting Samsung Kids—an essential tool for parents committed to creating a safe and enriching digital environment for their children, especially younger ones. Supporting the Digital for Life Movement by the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA), Samsung Kids helps parents manage online content, screen time, and internet access, encouraging healthy digital habits from an early age.

Easily accessible via the Quick Panel on your devices, Samsung Kids mode offers a comprehensive suite of features, including parental controls and advanced security powered by Knox. These tools allow parents to confidently establish safe boundaries around internet use and app access, ensuring that children can explore educational content and enjoy digital fun within a secure setting.

The Galaxy Tab S9 series (Tab S9 Ultra, Tab S9+, Tab S9) come with powerful Galaxy AI features that stand to not only transform your life but also empower your children with thoughtful ways to create, problem solve and play.
