One of the hottest toys hitting the shelves this Christmas is the Vtech InnoTab2.
The VTech InnoTab2 is an interactive, multi-media educational tablet for children aged 4-9.
The all new InnoTab 2 is designed specifically for little hands and the fun interactive games help them develop essential skills like reading, spelling, maths and logic.
It features:
- – 5″ colour touch screen
- – rotating multi-way camera with video recording functionality
- – music player
- – video viewer
- – ebook reader
- – in-built microphone & speaker, and
- – a headphone jack
All this and more is housed in a sleek, kid-tough and compact design for easy portability. It also includes a handy in-built, fold-out stand for easier viewing of movies or for use as a digital photo frame!
Downloading games is as easy as connecting the InnoTab via USB to your pc or laptop and saving them onto the 2GB onboard memory. If you run out of space, there is an SD slot for extra memory.
With the InnoTab2, kids will have so much fun they won’t even realise they’re learning! (and you might even get your phone back 🙂 )
The InnoTab retails for $179.95 and comes in pink and blue. It is available from Toys R Us, Big W, Target and David Jones.

I recently attended the launch of the InnoTab 2 and was really impressed with the features and functionality of this toy.
With a 5 yr old & 2 yr old who are always jumping on my phone to play games, I love the idea that they can play on the InnoTab and I don’t have to worry about them accessing inappropriate material from the internet or running up a huge bill by downloading games and accessories on my phone.
With one of these toys, I can relax and not have to look over their shoulders every 5 seconds to make sure that they’re not getting into something they shouldn’t be.
Martine Oglethorpe from The Modern Parent spoke at the launch and really opened my eyes to some of the online dangers young children are exposed on a daily basis. “As increased internet use becomes more socially acceptable and our children become more tech-savvy, a new set of challenges arise that parents have never had to face before”.
Whilst at the launch I received one InnoTab 2 for my kids and one extra to giveaway to one of my lovely readers.
