VTech V.Smile: Thomas & Friends Engines Working Together User Manual page 2

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 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 kid-friendly
design, age-appropriate curriculum, vivid graphics, and fun game-play into a unique experience
that children will love and parents can support. The V.Smile™ TV 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. Both offer the 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 and learn. 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 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
