Welcome to the Apple Community.
Tap on your ID in the App store app and select view iD, from your account settings you can manage hidden apps.

Thanks for your help Winston, it helped to a point! I followed your instructions BUT it didn't work entirely. My unused Apps were saved in the "Purchased" section of my Apps Store App. To find the ones that had been hidden I had to tap the "Genius" tab... then open my Apple ID... then View Apple ID... then Sign In... then I scrolled down to "iTunes in the Cloud" & clicked on "Hidden Purchases." It was here I found "Hidden Purchases" for iPad Apps & could "Unhide" them.
And you should check the Restrictions list in Settings/General/Restrictions on your iPad.

That's more or less what I suggested you do, you can get to your Apple ID in numerous different screens, the App store is just one of them.
