VTech Record & Learn KidiStudio Wins Good Housekeeping Best Toy Award (只提供英文版)

Developmental Learning Toy Fosters Early Love of Music and Creativity

VTech-KidiStudioChicago VTech (www.vtechkids.com), a world leader in age-appropriate and developmental stage-based electronic learning products for children, today announced that its Record & Learn KidiStudio, an industry standout this awards season, is a winner in Good Housekeeping's 2014 Best Toy Awards, featured in the magazine's December issue. Geared for ages three to six, the Record & Learn KidiStudio goes beyond a simple musical keyboard, letting kids alter their voices with different melodies and indulge their inner DJ with sound effects and tempo-changing features.

"The Record & Learn KidiStudio helps children discover and develop a lifelong love of music through an instrumental toy with unsurpassed play value," said William To, President, VTech Electronics North America. "This product epitomizes what we strive for – to create educational, age-appropriate toys that keep kids entertained and learning. We are thrilled that Good Housekeeping recognizes these qualities."

The Record & Learn KidiStudio lets kids perform like a rock star! Kids can explore a variety of musical instruments, adjust the tempo and sing-along to the music while recording a musical masterpiece to share with family and friends. The light-up keyboard lets them follow the lights and learn to play their favorite melodies. Kids can choose an instrument and use the keyboard to play that instrument's different sounds, or press the cymbal or tap along on the drum to add a beat to the song. They can even pretend to be a DJ with the turntable sound effect and speed up or slow down the tempo to match their style. Sing along to 20 melodies in Rock, Hip Hop, Jazz and Techno styles with a real voice-changing microphone. (MSRP: US$39.99, ages 3-6 years).

The engineers in the Good Housekeeping Institute screen all toys launched throughout the year, pick those that have the most play potential and evaluate contenders to make sure they meet industry standards for safety and don't shatter into small pieces that can become choking hazards for young children, when dropped on a Drop Tester. Then, over a two-week period, nearly 100 children are brought into Good Housekeeping's labs to test toys and give their feedback. Criteria for selecting winning toys focus on design, construction, skill- and imagination-building potential, and, ultimately, the fun factor.

"The Record & Learn KidiStudio captivated our kid testers and we're thrilled to name it as one of our 2014 Best Toy Awards," said Miriam Arond, director of the Good Housekeeping Institute at the Hearst Tower in New York City.

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 nine 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 resource, which can be found at www.vtechkids.com/milestones.
