We have 3 Switches in the household that have held up remarkably well to daily abuse. I've repaired little things here and there like the joy-con connector rails becoming loose. My 8 year old drops his many times a week. They're affordable and kid proof.

That being said, I can't imagine handing him a $500 Switch 2. Strangely no one in my household has any interest in the new switch, which I am thankful for.
