I'm looking for an optical pen, if that's the correct name, for my granddaughter to do drawings on her non-touch screen laptop.
Wireless is preferable, and not too expensive.
I've seen some that are like a pen-shaped mouse. Are these any use?

TIA

Needs to be a touch screen. And then the sylus needs to be compatible with the OS, so if it's a Windows machine you need a stylus which operates with that.

You should be able to get a stylus and tablet for around £200-300. A Android tablet would work but an iPad would give give a far better experience.
