Help How to setup 2 new tablets for kids?

[Android Question]

I am buying my 4 and 8 year old new Samsung tablets for Christmas. I need help in finding the best way to setup their new accounts. I already have a google play account under my gmail address with apps on it for a old Andriod tablet they shared.

Do I need to created new gmail accounts for each child / tablet that link to the play store? If I used my old email for both tablets they would have all the old purchased apps but would the two tablets save game content over each other? Is there a way to use my email for the play store but different profiles?

If I buy a game for one tablet can they share it or do I need to also buy it for the other one?

Any suggestions on how the best way to set these up would be great. Thanks in advance.

I think this is fairly new, so take a look.

I used a separate Google account for my two kids's smartphones and I keep the password secret. As they are young I use the parental control option to limit the games and apps to 12+
