I HAVE ALWAYS BROUGHT V-TECH GADGETS FOR MY KIDS, WELL I LIKE THEM TOO, THIS ONE IS A GIFT FOR MY YOUNGEST, SHE IS BEHIND ON HER READING AGE, SO WITH THIS SHE WILL BE ABLE TO BE MORE INDEPENDENT AT BEDTIME. EVEN THOUGH I STILL READ TO HER BEFORE SLEEP SHE ALSO LIKES TO READ ALONE. AND THIS IS WHERE THIS COMES IN, IT HIGH-LIGHTS EACH WORD AS THE NARATOR READS OUT ALOUD. SHE CAN FOLLOW THE WORDS TO THE STORY AND ALSO THIS ACTS AS A KIDS E-READER. THE V-TECH WEBSITE HAS ABOUT 20 OR SO FREE STORIES YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ONTO AN SD CARD THAT YOU POP INTO YOUR STORIO, JUST UNSCREW THE BATTERY COVER AND SLIDE IN THE SD CARD.

I bought this for my 3 year old as a christmas present. By the end of day one, it had been dropped, bashed and lovingly played with and survived!!!
My little boy thinks its great and loves the story and the games on it - he is also learning (although doesn't know as its not structured) and now tells me the name of the letters as well as the phonics.
Doesn't replace reading to him and is something that we can do together or he can do on his own. Great for in car too on the longer journey. Would recommend buying a set of rechargable batteries with it as they do run down quite quickly - although most parents are aware of this with any children's toy.
Would recommend getting an SD card too and linking into the computer. Not only can you get a progress report on what your child is playing and learning, but you can download addtional stories (some free some not), which adds variety and makes better value for money too.

My five year old Granddaughter said "Its the best present I have ever had".
Her mother has to take it off her when she goes to bed.
They learn on their own with this and it makes them feel very grown-up.
Brilliant.
I hope they vastly extend the range of cartridges to include Maths etc, great scope for learning.
