My family has a big interactive touch screen at home, and honestly, it’s really cool. I use it for pretty much everything — homework, drawing, watching movies, and even video calls.

Homework is actually kind of fun on it. I can write and draw right on the screen with my finger, which makes it way less boring than just writing in a notebook.

But my favourite part is drawing and making stuff. One time I drew a really silly meme on the screen and it made my whole family laugh. That’s the best thing about it — you get to be creative and mess around with ideas, not just watch stuff.

We also use it for video calls sometimes, mostly for my sister’s tutoring. It’s way better than a laptop screen because everyone can actually see properly.

Why I like it so much

• It’s a touch screen, so you draw and tap on it like a giant tablet
• It’s huge, so the whole family can see it at once
• It’s actually really easy to use, even for a kid

If your friend was thinking about getting one

Here’s what I’d tell them: get one! You get to be creative with it, and it makes stuff like homework and drawing way more fun than doing it the normal way.
