Chicago – VTech (www.vtechkids.com), a world leader in age-appropriate and developmental stage-based electronic learning products for children, today announced the availability of the best new children's learning tablets – InnoTab^® 3S Plus and InnoTab^® 3 Plus. These 4th generation tablets both feature a rechargeable battery power pack so parents don't need to worry about constantly purchasing new batteries, plus access to more than 800 educator-endorsed, age and stage appropriate learning cartridges, software and apps that can be purchased and downloaded through VTech's Learning Lodge^® app store. These tablets are value-packed with everything kids need for learning fun!

InnoTab 3S Plus features Wi-Fi and comes with 16 apps, including free access to an enhanced 2nd generation of Premium VTech Kid Connect^™, a tablet-to-mobile communication app that lets kids communicate in real time and exchange voice and text messages, photos, drawings and fun stickers with their parents' smartphones. New enhanced features of the app include a parent-controlled group chat and a fun multi-player game (available in the fall), all packed into a kid-safe, kid-friendly Wi-Fi tablet for under US$80. InnoTab 3 Plus comes with 12 apps to open up a world of learning fun at an even more affordable price of US$59.99, making it a great first learning tablet for price conscious parents. Both InnoTab 3S Plus and InnoTab 3 Plus offer premium features for unsurpassed value as compared to competitive children's learning tablets.

"The InnoTab 3S Plus and the InnoTab 3 Plus are the quintessential learning tools, offering safe, educational experiences for a child," said William To, President, VTech Electronics North America. "Both tablets feature a wide variety of curriculums that will keep children engaged and immersed in learning new skills. And, the InnoTab 3S Plus includes an enhanced version of our exclusive Premium Kid Connect messaging app, an unprecedented introduction to the children's learning tablet category last year. These new introductions further demonstrate our peerless quality in creating age-appropriate and educational content that parents trust and children love."

InnoTab 3S Plus, InnoTab 3 Plus and the entire line of InnoTab tablets are designed to withstand physical wear and tear from kids, and each is value-packed with features and content designed exclusively with a child's unique educational needs in mind.
