V-tech V.Smile: Shrek Manuale utente

Animation L.L.C.

Dear Parent,

At VTech

, we know that every year, children are asking to play video games

at younger and younger ages. At the same time, we understand the hesitation

of most parents to expose their children to the inappropriate content of many

popular video games. How can you feel condent in allowing your children

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.SmileTM Learning System – a unique

video game system created especially for children aged 3 to 8. The V.SmileTM

Learning System combines a kid-friendly design, age-appropriate curriculum,

entertaining graphics, and fun game play into a unique experience that your

child will love and you can support. The V.SmileTM Learning System engages

your child with two modes of play: the Learning Adventure – an exciting

exploratory journey in which learning concepts are seamlessly integrated, and

the Learning Zone – a series of games designed to focus on specic school

skills in a fun, engaging way. Both of these educational modes offer your child

hours of learning fun.

As part of the V.SmileTM Learning System, VTech

offers a library of game

SmartridgesTM 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 6-8) – so that the educational content of

the system grows with your child.

At VTech

we are proud to provide 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. We thank you for trusting VTech

with the important job of

helping your child explore a new world of learning!

Sincerely,

Your Friends at VTech
