VTech Submarine Learning Boat

by Arooj Akbar
(Pakistan)




I know that many parents have had a moment when they were fervently grateful to a mere toy. Yes, just a toy must have stopped your child from wailing constantly or tagging along behind you proving to be a great hindrance in your household chores or the most commonly occurring phenomena: waking you when you doze off finding a little peace after a day's hard work.

Every toy has a little magic, I believe, which prevents the little ones from jerking you awake by keeping them dazzled. However not every toy has that little cherry on top: the educational advantage.

There's no doubt in anyone's mind that educational toys really add to the development of children's brains, co-ordination and learning skills. The more interactive a toy is, the more it stimulates your kids and keeps them occupied.

Educational toys are a great way to free up some of your time while your kids are kept busy. The icing on the cake is that these educational toys provide a lifetime of benefits!



VTech Submarine is such a toy. Although its intended purpose may seem to make bath time fun but there is a lot more to it than meets the eye. The submarines playful squirts add to the element of fun while the VTech Submarine Learning Boat's dolphin captain teaches children about colors, numbers, animals, animal sounds and animal characteristics.

The dolphin also likes to play hide and seek, asking for help to find his animal friends. Correct answers i.e. pressing the correct button for the identification of the colour, number or animal is rewarded with a squirt. The squirts are of two different intensities which adds the element of surprise to the game. The result being that bath time is made fun but educational. You could not have spent this little time more constructively.

Educational toys not only enable help you keep your children pacified but they also stimulate their brain activity and it is an accepted fact that brains are most receptive in the younger years so why not make the most of this advantage taking help from toys along the way ensuring that your child has the ultimate fun and learning experience, and the best educational toy is that provides both qualitatively and quantitatively!

So search, think and choose the best because I know you want the best for your children. I'm not saying that the toy I just reviewed is the best but it is an excellent example of what you can give to your kids if you add just a little thought to the toys you buy your kids. So start thinking and working now because working on your children is a tremendous task! And I assure you this little concern will be fruitful!

There is so much confusing information out there about parenting, it can be hard to know how to cover all bases.

If you are worried about your child's development in some areas, or want some ongoing expert parenting tips, then check out Dr Rosina's Inspired Children - Life Skills for Kids.

She has a carefully designed membership program that will give you activities and advice, delivered to your inbox each week/fortnight (depending upon membership level).

Each activity is designed to help your child develop key life skills like good self esteem, managing emotions and behaviour, health, nutrition, dealing with bullying and so much more.

Dr. Rosina McAlpine is an Associate Professor at the University of Sydney, and has received numerous awards for her work in education. Her program is a holistic approach to child development spanning 7 key areas of life.

I think this is a great resource for busy Moms - it takes ages sifting and sorting what your child needs, or finding a great activity that has a good learning focus for your kids. It covers all bases, and makes it easy to spend quality time with your kids, knowing they are learning valuable skills that will be with them for life. Life Skills For Kids would also make a great resource for homes-schoolers.

Click N Kids would have to be one of my subscribers most popular programs, and from what they say, it is mostly because the kids have fun while they are learning. In fact they don't even realize they are learning! Click N kids are using the Looney Tune Characters now in their phonics program, which of course kids just love.
