Reading the specs of Econo-Keys EK-97-TP, it looks as if this formidable IP67-certified keyboard would survive the dishwasher. But a decent waterproof keyboard you can wash with soapy water and rinse off with tap water should suffice for most users.

Notebook cushion with air circulation
Resting your notebook on a cushion may be comfortable but makes it easy to accumulate heat. Conventional cushions lack air circulation and essentially traps heat preventing it from dissipating. Accumulated heat may shorten the lifespan of any electronic devices.
Harald Hynell designed a cushion featuring non-slip plastic nubs for comfortable lap computing but does not compromise air circulation. The plastic nubs effectively raises the notebook and allows the hot air to dissipate through the gaps.

PeeWee PC tough Atom-powered tablet netbook for kids
My dad bought our first PC, an 80286 IBM-compatible when I was twelve years old. That was two decades ago. Nowadays, twelve month old toddlers watch Baby Bright and Barney episodes on their mom’s netbook in Starbucks. Play kiddie games around 3 years old, multiplayer ones too. And build websites and blogs as they turn five.
Kids may be more tech-wise these days but being kids, a PC or notebook is regarded as merely toys to them. Handle with care is not in their job description at all. Simply put, they’ll trash your delicate computer in no time. What then? Buy a toughbook? No, get them kids a PeeWee PC!
