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 parents responsibly allow their children to play these games, and still educate and entertain them in a healthy, age-appropriate manner? Our answer to this question is V-Motion Active Learning System! A big breakthrough for junior gamers, V-Motion takes educational video gaming to a whole new level with a motionactivated gaming system that engages both active minds and bodies. V-Motion plugs directly into the TV to provide kids with a high-tech gaming experience using thrilling, age-appropriate learning games and a motion-activated, intuitive wireless controller. The V-Motion Active Learning System engages children 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 specific skills in a fun, engaging way. Each Smartridge game encourages active gaming while giving kids minds a workout, too, as they learn basic math, reading, science, spelling and more. In addition to the action-packed Smartridge game play, the V-Motion includes the V.Link (USB drive) that connects kids to VTechs secure online site to unlock bonus games and track their scores against other gamers. At VTech, we are proud to provide parents with a much-needed solution to the video game dilemma, as well as another innovative way for children 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,
Julia Fitzgerald Vice President, Marketing VTech Electronics, NA To learn more about the V-Motion Active Learning System and other VTech toys, visit www.vtechkids.com
