J has discovered my iPad. I downloaded a few apps for her but she prefers to hit the home button, go to my email and send emails to everyone or delete pics/videos. So, I'm searching for a toddler proof cover and maybe something that also covers the home button. She screams "Mine!" as she toddles away with it and I can already see it shattered into a million pieces any day now. Suggestions?
ETA: Yay for guided access! Ok, now I need a case!

What about using guided access instead? Lifesaver with my LO 
Won't exit app your LO is in unless home button is pressed 3x in a row, then a password.

@emg86: GUIDED ACCESS! It's under settings and it can "lock" LO into the app you want them to play with!

@emg86: Yah, I can't believe I didn't know about it for so long, what a cool feature it is.

Ah - I need this guided access feature turned on!!! Amazing... L looooves pushing the stupid home button, and then freaks out when her app closes after 2 seconds of being on...

We have this case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005A2H7QI?pc_redir=1399993178&robot_redir=1
I figured "extreme military tested" would mean it could withstand toddler-handling. So far, so good!

We have the Otterbox and love it. LO has dropped the iPad a few times, but luckily the case protected it.

We have a fisher price case. You can put it on so they can't hit the home button. The only downside is you can't charge it or anything while the case is on.
