Smart Wheels^® and Switch & Go Dinos^® lines, Learning Cartridges that are compatible with the popular InnoTab^® line of children's tablets and an extensive range of new infant and preschool toys for enriching and fun play experiences at every stage of development.

"We are proud to expand our extensive range of products that combine classic play patterns with revolutionary technologies and received a tremendous reception from parents and kids last year," said William To, President, VTech Electronics North America. "In addition, we are thrilled to introduce a wide variety of infant and preschool products that were developed with insight from learning experts for age-appropriate play experiences."

"VTech consistently impresses us with their innovation and depth of their product ranges every year," said Chris Byrne, content director for TTPM, aka The Toy Guy^®. "They have a proven track record in producing high-quality, educational and fun toys that are a hit with consumers."

VTech works closely with a panel of children's learning specialists on the development of its infant and preschool learning products. Each one of the Expert Panel members specializes in developmental or educational fields for children from birth through 9 years of age. VTech and the Expert Panel collaborate to ensure their products and content deliver the best learning experience possible for every child at every stage of development.

Each child grows at a different pace mentally, emotionally and physically, and has different needs as they grow through various life stages. Insight from these developmental and education experts allows VTech to provide parents with guidelines and recommendations to help them make informed choices. VTech delivers an expansive selection of toys that are appropriate for their child's particular age and stage and to accompany them as they continue to grow and reach new developmental milestones. These recommendations have been compiled into a Milestones guide, which can be found at www.vtechkids.com/milestones.
