Comments about VTech Electronics V.Smile Motion Active Learning System:

This product has been a wonderful addition to our daughter's learning! It helps with coordination and reinforcing reading essentials. I use the A/C adapter, so batteries are not an issue for me. Also, it is backwards-compatible with the first V-Smile system, which increases the library of games and allows our daughter to keep playing the games she already loves! The only issue I have seen is that even with fresh batteries, the motion of the controller can lag and/or be over-responsive. However, we just use the controller as normal and don't worry with the motion, so it negates the issue. If you want to combine learning with gaming, get this system!

Comments about VTech Electronics V.Smile Motion Active Learning System:

We got this game For our son whom just turned three. He does need help with it, as he can't read. He sits there and loves to play "spiderman!" We also bought the adapter for it so we don't go through batteries as much. I am getting my nieces and nephews one for Christmas this year, as they love to play with my son's v motion!

Comments about VTech Electronics V.Smile Motion Active Learning System:

We LOVE our v-smile motion! My son is fixing to turn 4 and he plays his v-smile motion and his hand held v-smile everyday! We have a wii and it is hard to buy games for young kids that they can actually play,so I saw this and it is GREAT! Keeps my son very active and moving and every game keeps him interested. I would say it is like a kids Wii! I even enjoy playing the games and I am 26! Me and my son play the games together and have a ball. His older friends love to play the games too! He has learned to count, learned his numbers and has been adding numbers because of these great games. I give this product an A+++ The controllers are great to since they are for right or left hand players!

Bought 2 systems, both quit before 3mths

Bottom Line:

Comments about VTech Electronics V.Smile Motion Active Learning System:

I bought a vsmile and my daughter loved it. However, it broke in 3 mths. It worked one second and simply quit working. I bought a second and now it won't find the controller, it's turned on, but the light that lights up to find the controller won't work. I have always had it so my children can't change the games or touch the buttons, so I know it's not user error...The product simply doesn't last..Now I have 6 games and no game system, and my daughter is very dissappointed.

Our kids play this every day. We were disappointed with how the pictures seem blurry on our new tv (46") However the kids love the games and play them over and over again. Our son especially is doing better at identifying number snd lower/uppercase letters.
