probably the best option TBH
laptops gets bashed and you wont need a tower
definately check if it has ssd for windows as ssd is needed these days
if it says 1TR ssd its likely got a small ssd cache or optane
2 things you really need
is a youtube blocker extension, so you can block channels
they do have youtube kids but it is intentionally pooh
and they do the online teaching on youtube,
but always good to prevent unsuitable media popping up or being auto played
put the youtube account in restriced mode and turn off auto play etc.are more options
and KASPERSKY KIDS (worth every penny just $15 a year)
with KK, you can set schedules and restrict a lot of stuff,
you can also create unlimited profiles
so you can give the kid a "at school" profile and a "free time" and an "offline"
each with different restrictions or schedules/time limits,
also down time, so its off an hour before sleep or at meal times etc.
so many options with KK compared to others
