You don't have to connect the device to the internet to buy cryptos.

I think a lot of the BTC ins and outs have gone over my head! My background is in healthcare, so I struggle a bit with the tech side of things.
Perhaps it would be easier to explain my goal
I'm looking to buy £3,000 of BTC and to hold that in cold storage for at least 5 years (I massively believe Cryptos will have surpassed fiat currency for all online transactions, in 10 or so years).
So, with no Blockchain uploaded to my iPad (in fact it's brand new, never used, and solely for Crypto use), what processes do I need to go through to:
1. Buy that amount of BTC (I've got recs from you guys for Localbitcoin and a couple of other peer to peer brokers)
2. Put it into cold storage.
3. Do I need to download the Blockchain to achieve this, now or in future?
Specifically I'm looking for advice on every step, from what I need to download, to start the whole thing.
Could you guys also advise on the likely Giga capacity needed for such an iPad, for now and so it's useable for the next year or so? Exchanging/ upgrading the iPad is not a problem
All advice really appreciated !
