Electronic learning toys such as baby and child laptops which run on batteries, the best way to keep some children happy and V-Tech/IQ Builders dominates the market. Best choices are those which enable the sound to be turned down, or better still, off, not generally an option with those designed for younger users. The V.Smile Pocket is a handheld version of the educational games console, with games featuring popular characters teaching age-appropriate curriculum. Accessories include a travel bag to prevent scratches, an adaptor that plugs into the cigarette lighter of your car, power pack to recharge the batteries and adaptor port for plugging into the mains so when not on the move you don't have to use batteries. It comes with a port to plug in earphones, and the controls flip over for right or left-handed users. A V.Smile Pocket nears the £80 mark. Products for younger children such asDora the Explorer laptop are more like £25.
