How to extract ipad data partially from itunes backup

My wife deleted a couple of photos and voice memos from my iPad 2. Luckily, I have backed them up with iTunes two weeks ago. The question is that i only need to restore a few items from the backup file instead of a full restore. I don't want to the existing data being overwritten by the backup. Is there any app for this? Or There are other ways out. thanks

iPad 2, iOS 9.2

Hi

When you charge an iPhone/ ipad it automatically backs up to iCloud over your wifi

If you restore ipad from cloud backup you should get all your apps/ data back.

I havent use my PC for over 2 years for iPhone / iPad all updates & apps updates

Done over my WiFi .

Cheers

But I don't find the option for selectively backup. This will restore all the backup on iCloud, right?

To restore a backup, connect your iPad to your computer with a USB cable. Right click on your iPad in the left window of iTunes. If you made a back up, you should see a "Restore from Backup" option. But if you need to extract data like messages, photos, contacts from iTunes to your computer, iTunes won't do it but Mobiledic iOS Data Recovery does it.
