One of the hottest toys or gifts this holiday season are tablets. VTech has decided adults aren’t the only ones who could benefit from this budding technology. The Innotab is the newest VTech educational toy. VTech have an entire line of childrens learning products, and have specialized to this field for quite some time, so you know a tablet made by VTech for kids will be of good quality. Not to mention, then the kids will leave yours alone! Hooray!
This tablet first of all NEEDS an SD card. If you plan on buying, this also pick up an SD card- 1GB -2GB is fine, any brand will do. Just make sure you grab it. In order to save anything on the Innotab, you MUST have one in the machine. This is not a big deal if you are aware of it and they run for pretty cheap (less than $10). No worries!
The Innotab itself is a cool toy. It runs apps, plays educational games, illustrations, reads ebooks, plays MP3’s, plays videos and views pictures. Most anything a PC can do (except the Internet) this tablet can do. The quality of the hardware is good, audio is as well, and the video is sharp. Will parents want to use it for work or messing around with Angry Birds on? No. Will kids like it because of its ease of use? Definitely. The games library is huge as well, and instead of just teaching hand eye coordination, these also teach math, reading and reasoning skills. And they are made for little hands- unlike your tablet! Which, now the kids will leave alone- again- YAY!
Little Man just discovered what the tablet can do while on our last trip, when daddy decided to let him play Fruit Ninja on it. He had a BLAST! This tablet was perfect for him- it got him more hands on with a tablet without it being Mommy and Daddy’s tablet.
I hope this helps bring about a lifetime love of technology and interest in it and science.
These tablets are the future of computing so you might as well get them used to it now, lol.
This is such an awesome gift idea!!
Anything that keeps the kids away from my laptop works with me. Vtech makes quality products too.
Looks cool and intriguing!
That looks so cool! Now kids can act ‘just like mom’ and have their own tablet to use…no more stealing ours!
Wow, these are really cool. Now that all the parents have iPhones and iPads and have found out our little ones are as obsessed with them as we are I think we welcome these tablets made especially for kids.
Oh, My 2 year old would never let this out of his sight. This sounds like a fabulous Santa gift for him.
Vtech is one of little girl’s fav! We’ll have to look at this one too.
How fun! I bet he loves if. I have heard nothing but good things about it.
I love V-tech toys they make some really cool things.
I was just looking at these on line. They look great!
