3 AA batteries required
VTech, the creator of the award-winning V.Smile TV Learning System, is a world leader of age-appropriate learning toys. Through the combination of entertaqining electronic formats and engaging, age-appropriate content, VTech's products help children learn while having fun. Their Build & Learn Workbench is another such product. Don't be fooled; this is not the old wooden pound-the-pegs workbench from former toddler days. This one talks! Just press the big green star in front to turn the unit on, and let the fun begin. The Build & Learn Workbench welcomes kids with a cheerful, "Hi there! Are you ready to build? Grab your tools and we'll build something cool!"Select one of the four tool-shaped activity buttons on the console to learn numbers & counting, shapes & colors, building projects, and more!
A colorful screen forms the backdrop for the workbench, and displays
a square for each letter of the alphabet. Press a square and a voice names an
object that represents that letter.
The Build & Learn Workbench helps children stretch their imagination through
role-playing exercises and hands-on fun. All the while, they're sharpening eye-hand
coordination. They'll begin to explore tools and activities in depth, once they
learn their way around, with 26 touch-sensitive projects that invite them to
interact with the workbench. Tools are chunky and kid-friendly, built to be
grasped and turned by small hands. As a child accomplishes each project, he'll
feel more confident about coming up with new projects on his own. As he accomplishes
each task, a voice encourages him and helps create a sense of success. The design
includes storage space for each tool and accessory, so parts aren't misplaced--a
nice perk for parents!
This is a toy that won't be tossed aside within a few months. It's durable, built to last, and is a toy most grownups wish they'd had back when they were kids.
