V Tech V Smile VIdeo Game is an awesome way for children to have fun while they are learning at the same time. My son received this Video Game Combo as a (recommended) birthday present and my kids have so much fun playing it. I did however, have to purchase an additional controller joystick as the set only comes with one. The games are fun, yet educational at the same time and come in a variety of different characters such as Scooby Doo, Dora the Explorer, Disney Princesses, and even some "sport" games which I had to buy off of ebay because they don't have them at my local stores.  This game system can keep the kids occupied for hours...and since its educational, you don't feel like they are "frying" their brain.
