The cell phone and iPads will run down quickly if used and they will be. Just make sure the firewood is dry, have plenty of matches or lighter, and a crank flashlight and crank radio.
We rarely lose power for more than a moment because our apartment building is on the same grid as the hospital. However, one time when we DID have a significant outage my daughters & I just curled up on the couch with some good books. We had a battery-powered CD player for tunes, & we were all good. (My husband, because he works 3rd shift, slept through the whole thing.)
Watcha gonna do when the well runs dry? Watcha gonna do when the cell phone dies? Watcha gonna do when the ipod dies?People today, and kids especially, know nothing about how to rough it.

I bought my wife a hand crank charger to use with cell phones and such. Just in case.

Mostly fixed now, but cellphones won’t work if the towers don’t have power.
