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!

Sincerely,

Your Friends at VTech

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the VTech® Roly Poly Learning Tree™
learning toy.

The VTech® Roly Poly Learning Tree™ is a roly poly toy for toddlers
6 months and up. Toddlers will watch with delight as the rocking and
rolling motion of the roly poly base makes the squirrel ball roll around
the base of the tree. When the ball rolls over the light-up buttons, it will
activate a variety of musical responses. The bird and apple buttons
introduce colors, objects, sounds and numbers, while the light-up
buttons identify colors and nature sounds.
