Hi there, I have been looking for a drawing tablet for my 3 1/2-year-old. She loves to draw but we would like to go paperless.
I have found plenty of single colour options but I can’t seem to find one you can pick and choose colours. There are a few that draw in multi-colour but you cannot choose when it changes.
Also, it would ideally be able to sync drawings to a cloud storage services such as OneDrive or at least a mobile phone.
Has anyone come across such a device?

Hi,
We use a cheap Android tablet that came with a thick silicone cover so it can withstand knock and drops. its available in a variety of colours for boys and girls:

Then we got a cheap, 3rd party stylus* with an easy to hold grip for my toddler. As far as I know, the free drawing apps for kids are fine and most of them save to the pictures directory. if you have a google account you can get it to sync the pictures to Google Drive. Onedrive and Dropbox can be set to do the same.
*This stylus looks good but its features probably means its expensive compared to a normal stylus:

Thanks for your reply. The stylus looks interesting. I will check it out. I was hoping for a larger tablet. She already has a 7” kindle fire for kids but it’s a bit small for drawing. I’m thinking we may have to go with a single colour option such as:
