At VTech® we know that in order to effectively reach kids, today’s
learning tools have to be plugged into the fast-paced world around
them. That’s why we created the Grade School Learning Series – an
engaging set of stylized, interactive computers specially designed to
get grade-school kids up to speed with their fast-paced, tech-savvy
world.
Every product in the Grade School Learning Series covers a wide
range of school basics – math, language, logic, music, and even computer
skills. Activities are presented in a fast-paced, arcade-game style that
kids will recognize and enjoy. Each learning machine is loaded with
hi-tech features such as a music composer, a computer tutorial, challenging
games, and a real cursor mouse—tools that go hand-in-hand with the
way kids learn, play and use information. And of course, each laptop
is designed to travel easily along with a busy grade-schooler.
With the Grade School Learning Series, kids can access a way to
learn that closely matches the way they already live and play. We
thank you for trusting VTech® with the important job of helping your
child learn and succeed.
Sincerely,
Your Friends at VTech
