There are add on things you can buy to improve it, but none are strictly necessary.\r\n\r\nThis is the kind of think you can add too over time, though there are some recommended quality of life things that can improve it.\r\n\r\nHOWEVER...\r\n\r\nQuest 2 is for 13 and older. It clearly say so on the box, and that age limit is there for a reason.\r\n\r\n[Use by children younger than that can cause vision problems.](https://marketmalloptometry.ca/blog/3+Ways+Virtual+Reality+Headsets+May+Be+Harming+Your+Childs+Eyes/64)\r\n\r\nThis is a device you should control, limit the use of, and it should be a \"treat\" for anyone under 13.\r\n\r\nMaybe a couple of hours a week.\r\n\r\nShort term infrequent use shouldn't be a problem, so I'm not suggesting that you don't get one. Just that you should be aware of the potential risks and take steps to mitigate them if you do get one.\r\n\r\nThere are some great apps for kids, including some really cool educational content. \\[Titans of Space, Apollo 11 Vr, Vermillion, OpenBrush VR \\[not TiltBrush, OpenBrush is the same program, but free\\].\r\n\r\nHowever, regular use by letting them control when they use it is asking to have to pay for glasses in the future and deal with vision problems related to vision development issues.\r\n\r\nAt around 13, vision is developed enough that it's not as much of a risk unless they are spending several hours a day in VR, and those issues related to that are largely more temporary in nature, eye strain, fatigue, etc...\r\n\r\nThis is true of any VR device, not just the Quest 2. \r\n\r\nIt most has to do with how your eyes need to focus due to the screen distance and how the 3D works.\r\n\r\nIncidentally, 3D movies that use the polarized glasses can also do this, but normal exposure is so short term and infrequent that it's not really an issue.\r\n\r\nRead up on this and decide for yourself what limits should be placed on VR use for any kids under 13.\r\n\r\nAs far as peripherals, do something about the head strap. It gets uncomfortable to wear fast. They sell pads that you slip on over the strap that should do just fine, really anything is better than the strap it comes with. You don't need to spend much.\r\n\r\nIt's easier to keep tabs on what they are doing in VR if you don't get headphones or earbuds.\r\n\r\nAlso, I'd look into getting some of the [Kiwi grips with the hand strap and battery doors](https://www.amazon.com/KIWI-design-Controller-Accessories-Protector/dp/B0967ZD2WJ/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3RYNXJVK308UP\u0026amp;keywords=quest+2+grip\u0026amp;qid=1669505166\u0026amp;sprefix=quest+2+grip%2Caps%2C89\u0026amp;sr=8-3). This could prevent errant swings from breaking stuff in your home if someone loses their grip on a controller. They are expensive to replace.\r\n\r\nBuy some rechargeable AA batteries for the controllers. They last a while on a charge, but a set of four rechargeable AAs can be indefinitely swapped out, saving you money in the long run. Each controller uses one AA battery.\r\n\r\nI also recommend a face plate replacement. They are more sanitary and easier to clean than the one that comes with the Quest 2. [Bobo VR makes a neat one](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=bobo+vr+face+fan\u0026amp;crid=8RY29JFQ9FPL\u0026amp;sprefix=bobo+vr+face+fan%2Caps%2C92\u0026amp;ref=nb_sb_noss_2) with a little fan attachment on it that keeps the inside from getting as muggy as it normally does and keeps the lenses from getting foggy, VR Cover is also a good option.\r\n\r\nAssuming limited usage, you shouldn't need any extra battery life. The Quest 2 should last about two hours on a charge. If several kids are using it, you might want to invest in [a small one that will add about 2-4 more hours.](https://www.amazon.com/s?k=best+oculus+quest+2+battery+pack\u0026amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAj4ecBhD3ARIsAM4Q_jH3nmGvtqnZEYD4R7eS6APtteZ1Xj3MToTP-5sXxCuNXvi-BBy566EaAvIdEALw_wcB\u0026amp;hvadid=521285175329\u0026amp;hvdev=c\u0026amp;hvlocphy=9011660\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvqmt=e\u0026amp;hvrand=12350978334896243601\u0026amp;hvtargid=kwd-1076787159809\u0026amp;hydadcr=8175_9894884\u0026amp;tag=googhydr-20\u0026amp;ref=pd_sl_1yj20w1530_e)\r\n\r\nDon't leave it plugged in all the time. Charge it, unplug it, and make sure it is powered off before storing it away. Quest 2 has a tendency to melt the power connection if left plugged in to charge all the time. I've never heard of one starting a fire, but it can damage the device.\r\n\r\nI recommend some kind of mat to put in the center of a playspace. A small bathroom mat or door mat. This helps keep the center easy to find and even with roomspace you can't wander too far. Even in roomscale you shouldn't be moving too far from the center in most instances of play.\r\n\r\nA bathroom mat with a rubberized bottom works good on floors, and a doormat with spike grips works better on carpet. You want something that won't slide around too easily.\r\n\r\nA floor fan of some kind pointed at the mat just outside the playspace is also a good idea. I use a cheap tower fan for this. It helps someone in VR be aware of what direction they are facing.\r\n\r\nThere is a built in guardian feature that creates a wall that becomes visible when you near the edges of the play space.\r\n\r\nDon't let them take it outside and keep it out of direct sunlight. Even a little bit of sunlight getting into the lenses for even a second or two can damage the screen and render the device unusable.\r\n\r\nMake sure they know that if they start feeling dizzy or sick, they need to stop immediately. If they go too long it can make them feel sick for quite a while after they take the headset off. This is something they can build a tolerance for over time, or they may be immune to it entirely, it varies from person to person.\r\n\r\nIt's very similar to motion sickness, but actually caused by the exact opposite stimulus.\r\n\r\nThe two tips I suggested above about having a mat and a floor fan can actually help reduce VR sickness. Spatial awareness outside of VR helps keep it from happening as quickly, and it's just extra precautions to keep things from getting broken.\r\n\r\nIt's a cool toy, but you should have control of it and use it as a special treat for anyone under 13 rather than just handing it over to them to use as they please.\r\n\r\nAlso, be aware that there are some social aspects involved with some apps. They shouldn't be in VR Chat for example, as there are some pretty adult things going on in apps like that. It's not porn, but there's a bar culture with people drinking alcohol at home and using it to socialize like they would in a bar in that app for example. It's not a place for kids.\r\n\r\nApps like Gorilla Tag or Rec Room have a large number of younger players.\r\n\r\nYou should know what they have installed on it. It's no different from an Xbox or PS5 in that there are many games not intended for children available for it.\r\n\r\nSome kid friendly apps:\r\n\r\nMoss Book 1+2\r\n\r\nStar Wars Galaxy's Edge and Vader Immortal\r\n\r\nBeat Saber\r\n\r\nSynth Riders\r\n\r\nJob Simulator/Vacation Simulator\r\n\r\nRec Room \\[Social app with lots of other kids\\]\r\n\r\nWalkabout Mini Golf\r\n\r\nAngry Birds VR\r\n\r\nTetris Effect\r\n\r\nThese are animated short films you can get from the Meta store. Well worth checking out yourself as well.\r\n\r\nWolves in the Walls \r\n\r\nMyth: A Frozen Tale\r\n\r\nDown the Rabbit Hole \\[Interactive animation\\]\r\n\r\nPaper Birds\r\n\r\nBe sure to check the device out for yourself as well. It's kind of like a Wii in that it's easy to pick up and understand, even if you don't play video games.","subreddit_name":"oculus","author":"contrabardus"},{"body":"[You can have the strap on a Quest 2 controller already.](https://www.amazon.com/KIWI-design-Controller-Accessories-Protector/dp/B0967ZD2WJ/ref=sr_1_5?gclid=CjwKCAjwkaSaBhA4EiwALBgQaAYTx8ncFo3P8h9sv9cTrLWLmTpkuF6UsROZ5l4Rzonat1jo-2MmbBoCeu8QAvD_BwE\u0026amp;hvadid=408415855379\u0026amp;hvdev=c\u0026amp;hvlocphy=9011692\u0026amp;hvnetw=g\u0026amp;hvqmt=e\u0026amp;hvrand=17106538136620737989\u0026amp;hvtargid=kwd-852657892966\u0026amp;hydadcr=1777_9636518\u0026amp;keywords=kiwi+straps+quest\u0026amp;qid=1665763869\u0026amp;sr=8-5)\r\n\r\n[There's even one that extends the grip a bit.](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09J8HJMFK/ref=emc_b_5_t)\r\n\r\nWilling to bet there will be grips like this for both Quest Pro and Quest 3 within a couple of months of the launch of each.","subreddit_name":"oculus","author":"contrabardus"},{"body":"kiwi grips.  \r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0967ZD2WJ/ref=ppx\\_yo\\_dt\\_b\\_asin\\_title\\_o05\\_s00?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;psc=1","subreddit_name":"OculusQuest","author":"metalspider1"},{"body":"Properly designed knuckle grip covers do not attach to the ring.\r\n\r\nhttps://smile.amazon.com/KIWI-design-Controller-Accessories-Protector/dp/B0967ZD2WJ/","subreddit_name":"virtualreality","author":"JorgTheElder"},{"body":"purchase the kiwi grips and never worry about it again.\r\n\r\nfor example.
