Check these options:

Settings>Accessibility>Zoom... disable it
Settings>Accessibility>Touch>Assistive Touch... disable it
Settings>Accessibility>Touch>Touch Accommodations, and turn touch accommodations on. Then, go down to, “Ignore Repeat.” Turn it on, and adjust the duration to your liking (make some tests). If you make any sudden taps too quickly, it will not be registered (such as quick double taps).
Settings>Display&Brightness>Zoom = standard

When done, restart your iPad(s).

Regards

Giulio
