V.Smile TV Learning System

I saw a television ad this morning for this new videogame console directed at 3-7 year olds. They emphasized that it is a learning system for children and the titles, including several Disney learning games, will help teach kids to read and do math in a videogame environment. I looked on Amazon to see reviewer comments and the ones that were posted were particularly positive about the product.

In the article, the founders of the company discuss what they hope the game play will be like in their online version.
