Dear Parent:

Ever notice the look on your baby’s face when they learn something

new through their own discovery? These self-accomplished moments

are a parent’s greatest reward. To help fulfill them, VTech® created

the Infant Learning‚ series of toys.

These unique interactive learning toys directly respond to what

children do naturally – play! Using innovative technology, these

toys react to baby’s interactions, making each play experience fun

and unique as they learn age-appropriate concepts like first words,

numbers, shapes, colors and music. More importantly, VTech®’s

Infant Learning toys develop baby’s mental and physical abilities

by inspiring, engaging and teaching.

At VTech®, we know that a child has the ability to do great things.

That’s why all of our electronic learning products are uniquely

designed to develop a child’s mind and allow them to learn to the

best of their ability. We thank you for trusting VTech® with the

important job of helping your child learn and grow!
