i purchased my 4 year old great nephew the V Reader. What a fabulous gift. It’s like a Kindle for little minds. Each story comes with various activities which are fun, thought provoking and academic. He loves Shrek and the V Reader makes him feel like he has a book like my kindle. I an buying one V Reader book every month and he looks forward to getting the following book. Before everything i assumed the cost was a chunk much but they’re very definitely worth the price.

Well, here we’re, only two days out from Christmas Day. Our darling 4 1/2 year old received her VReader on Christmas Day, from us. i’m back to offer our impression of it thus far.

We didn’t really find time to do much with it until very late last night. i used to be going to observe it somewhat while she had a late snack of peppermint ice cream. Before I knew it she had finished and was back to me just as i used to be about to begin fiddling with it.

I handed it over to her. We bought her five cartridges/titles for it, plus the single it came with. The titles we own are: Shrek, Toy Story 3, Olivia, Dora and Tinkerbell. The age spectrum varies a whole lot among those titles. i used to be desperate to see the representation of varied age levels. i used to be pleased to locate that Shrek is way tougher than probably the most other titles. i feel it has the best age rating; it’s ages 5-7. Toy Story 3 has an age rating of three-5. While Toy Story 3 was relatively easy/babyish for her, it was still fun and that i believe engagin if not exactly challenging. This suggests the creators pulled together a very good package. The Shrek title will definitely last her ages. A number of it’s easy enough for her to do now but some will take her a long time to master and that’s good.

We’d played with the demo units that can be purchased this Christmas season. But demo units akin to the stores had aren’t really definitive. There just wasn’t enough variety in what it allowed the user to do. To date it appears that every title has the choice of reading the title story or having the unit read it aloud to you. Each title also appears to have various games, say, perhaps about 10-12, related to the tale! i used to be really surprised by the choice of activities included in each title!

I think this unit goes to last her a very long time. i think we are able to grow to be buying much more titles. Our youngster is a huge reader. She is already reading 3 and four letter words on her own and that i recently caught her decoding the word “chapter” as she tried to read a book herself! i like that she likes to read. i feel her VReader goes to be a pleasing compliment to her homeschooling in addition to her personal delight in books.
