Do you have a computer?? If you have a PC plug it into iTunes and see if it recognizes it, if you have a Mac, see if the Mac recognizes it in the Finder app. If the computer can recognize the device it could possibly be a faulty display problem. If it’s not recognized then probably a motherboard or battery issue. Maybe the battery failed due to the heat of the MagSafe charging. Wireless charging is the worst you can use in terms of battery health and safety as it generates the most heat out of any charging method.

Have you tried using the normal lightning cable that came with the phone to try and turn it on? Could be a dud MagSafe charger. If the MagSafe charger isn’t working it’s not gonna turn on. It could also be the wall brick you’re using that failed, apple bricks aside from the old 5w small ones, tend to fail. My gf has two failed 18w official apple chargers that both don’t work. Try another brick with the MagSafe first, and then definitely try using the lightning cable that came with the phone in the box as it could be the MagSafe charger that’s busted, or possibly even the wireless charging coil inside your phone, though that is the least likely culprit of the sort.

To be honest mate, so long as you’ve got a case on around the kids, you’ll be fine. The camera lenses are quite strong against impact (in my experience anyways) just don’t forget to clean them if they kids get a hold haha.

So? Don’t leave your phone laying around where they can get to it then… if you just leave it within reach of them, or worse let them play games on it which I’ve seen many people do, then the chances of it getting damaged increase massively.
