For $200, you can run virtually any iPad application or iPhone application. It's an entirely capable device -- there's nothing "wrong" or poorly constructed with this model. Yes, other models have nicer features -- but they come at additional costs.
It's also relatively newish -- only one generation removed from current. So you'll get a few years of use out of it before Apple end-of-lifes it, just to get you to "upgrade".
This ipad plus one of those cheap android tracfones (even if you don't activate them on cellular) will give you the ability to run pretty much any mobile application available.
There are frequent sales on 13" M1 Macbook Airs (they are a 4 year old machine at this point), as well as sales on refurbished Dell business-class laptops (8th gen intel and later). For around $1000, you can get one device of each platform. No excuse to not be able to get anything done.
Headphone jack and a home button are nice too!

Can your kids play those games on 64gb IPAD 9th gen? I would think so, no problems and probably much newer specs than the very old ipad they have. There are youtube videos that compare the ipad 9th gen 64gb model to the galaxy a9 plus. Maybe watch them to see what other peoples experience with both of them. People seem to think the IPAD 9th gen is a better constucted device, and they like the apples games on IPAD, and like other features. I do have android tablets and it is different experience then apple . Maybe get both devices. I have both android tablets and chromebooks , etc ... the IPAD does seem better constructed product and more polished. Is this for you or your kids, again I wasn't sure. Research which device would hold up better? In either case, you were sharing your concepts to us, and your first post was like a first draft. Maybe you can expand on your points after watching some youtube videos comparing IPAD 9th gen vs Galaxy A9 PLUS.
If so, just correcting the constant unnecessary "IPAD" as if they're trying to emphasize that word every time it's used.

Or play roulette with Facebook Marketplace/OfferUp and maybe get up to $150 if you're lucky.
Edit:
Then it's basically paying $100 for 32GB extra storage for an iPad that works with all my existing accessories (case, screen protector, Apple Pencil, and Lightning cables).
By the time it's time to upgrade again the Lightning to USB-C will be complete, cases & pencil will likely be cheaper.
Perfect opportunity for me to make a move with minimal capital investment for a device that's served me well so far.

I traded in the 8th gen 32gb ipad to bestbuy for $135 and got the 9th gen with 64gb upgrade for $65.00
a 4 year old ipad with practically daily use amongst two kids after 4 long years I get a fresh battery, double storage and a slightly faster chip for $65+tax after trade in. Its a win for me
