Dear Parent, At VTech®, we know that every year , childr en are asking to play video g ames
at younger and younger ages. At the same time, we under stand the hesitation of most parents to expose their children to the inappropriate content of many popular video games. How can you feel confident in allowing your childen to play these games, and still educate and entertain them in a healthy , age-appropriate manner?
Our solution to this on-going debate is the V.Smile™ TV Learning System – a unique video game system created especially for children aged 3 to 7. The V.Smile™ TV Learning System combines a kid-friendly design, age­appropriate curriculum, entertaining graphics, and fun game play into a unique experience that your child will love and you can support. The V.Smile™ TV Learning System engages your child with two modes of play: the Learning Adventure – an exciting exploratory journey in whic h learning concepts are seamlessly integrated, and the Learning Zone – a series of games designed to focus on specific school skills in a fun, engaging way. Both of these educational modes offer your child hours of learning fun.
As part of the V.Smile™ TV Learning System, VTech® offers a library of game Smartridges™ based on popular children’s characters that engage and encourage your child to play while learning. The library is organized into three levels of educational play – Early Learners (ages 3 - 5), Junior Thinkers (ages 4 - 6) and Master Minds (ages 5 - 7) – so that the educational content of the system grows with your child.
At VTech®, we are pr oud to pr ovide you with a much-needed solution to the video game dilemma, as well as another innovative way for your child to learn while having fun. W e thank y ou for trusting VTech® with the important job of helping your child explore a new world of learning!
