Dear Parent,

We at VTech® understand that a child's needs and abilities change as they grow
and with that in mind we can develop our toys to teach and entertain at just the
right level. Babies need toys that will stimulate their interest in different
textures, sounds and colours, while on-the-go toddlers and pre-schoolers
want more interactive toys to develop their imaginations and encourage
their language development. As they progress to more challenging curriculum
at school, VTech® keeps pace with a wide variety of cool, aspirational and
interesting computers for learning. Every toy is unique and helps your child
develop in different ways for the best all-around learning.
