Tucker is 4 ½ and is really starting to express even more interest in gaming. He is kind of at an in between stage from one gaming system to the one that I have that we play together, so when we had the chance to check out some of V-Tech’s new learning gaming toys, we were really excited! The first one is something that every house should have.

I love how interactive Tucker gets with the V.Smile! Kambry is just a little bit too young for this, but she loves to get in on the fun and the action! This has a joystick that I love! Tucker is left handed and it is very rare to find games that have the ability to be right or left handed, so this thrilled me to the end! The kids love playing their games and have asked for more from Santa. This is truly a fun game that the kids and get up, get active, enjoy, have fun and learn in the process.
The next one is something that every car needs. Why a car? Well, house or car, We travel a lot and when the kids are bored, Tucker loves to play games. I have a different kid when he wants to play a learning game than watch a movie. I love that!

I was really curious as to the compatibility of the games. To my surprise and happiness, the game cartridges (known as Smartridges) are interchangeable with the V.Smile TV Learning System and the V-Motion. With the Cyber Pocket, we can use the games for the V.Smile and the V-Motion. Two gaming ‘systems’ that have the ability to use the same cartridges on the go or at home – great deal! You can also track their progress online and give them even more games as a reward for their learning progress.
