Chicago <\/strong>\u2013 VTech (www.vtechkids.com<\/span><\/a>), a world leader in age-appropriate and developmental stage-based electronic learning products for children, today announced The Mom’s Choice Awards\u00ae <\/sup>has named the Switch & Go Dinos\u00ae<\/sup> Turbo T-Rex Launcher among the best in family-friendly products.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We are honored that the Mom’s Choice Awards has acknowledged our Switch & Go Dinos Turbo T-Rex Launcher with a Gold Award,” said William To, President, VTech Electronics North America. “It is wonderful that we continue to be recognized by esteemed programs and organizations as we create innovative, educational electronics that make learning fun for kids.”<\/p>\n

VTech’s Switch & Go Dinos Turbo T-Rex Launcher includes one electronic Switch & Go Dinos Turbo T-Rex that easily transforms from a dino to race car in a few easy steps. Using the launcher, kids can turbo charge the dino or race car, then blast it from the mouth of the T-Rex. The faster kids charge, the farther it goes! At top speeds, the T-Rex races more than 20 feet! The launcher also works with other Switch & Go Dinos Turbo dinosaurs (each sold separately). (MSRP:US$14.99<\/span>, ages 3-8)<\/p>\n

“We are happy to award a deserving product like VTech’s Switch & Go Dinos Turbo T-Rex Launcher,” said Dawn Matheson<\/span>, Executive Director, Mom’s Choice Awards. “Our panel of judges really felt it merited a Gold Award and a place on our list of the best in family-friendly products that parents and educators can feel confident in using.”<\/p>\n

VTech works closely with a panel of children’s learning specialists on the development of its infant and preschool learning products.\u00a0 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.<\/p>\n

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<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Parents, educators, librarians and retailers look for the Mom’s Choice Awards Honoring Excellence seal of approval when selecting quality materials for children and families.
