Portable Laptop Designed for Kids
This child-sized laptop boasts a full keyboard with easy-to-read buttons for numbers and quick buttons to bring kids to various games and activities. Every time your child presses a button, the laptop will repeat the button's function, encouraging learning. A volume button offers three levels of sound, although the sounds and background music cannot be turned off. The on/off button preserves battery life, and the side port for the included mini-USB cord features a spring-closed cover.
The laptop's mouse clicks into and moves on a provided platform, so your child can use the laptop on uneven surfaces. Parents will appreciate that the mouse snaps onto the top of the laptop for easy storage and portability. A convenient carry handle lets your child take the laptop along on playdates or road trips.
Educational Games Spur Young Minds
The Tote and Go Laptop's games are separated into categories based on knowledge area, including letters and words, numbers and shapes, and logic and games. Each section features several games uniquely designed to encourage your child's mind and prepare your little one for school. The report card button allows you and your child to review progress for each of the games.
The laptop's games teach skills such as differentiating between capital letters and letter sounds, identifying shapes, comparing amounts, and counting, all with the help of cute animal friends.
Social and Music Capabilities for Creative Play
Kids can investigate the world of social networking with the Net Pals activity, which allows kids to interact with animal friends. Kids can send postcards, visit or play with animal friends, or give gifts to their buddies. Apart from the social network, your child will be able to curate his or her very own fish tank.
With the Music Party feature, the laptop allows your child to select and listen to songs from a playlist. While the music is playing, your young one can interact with instrument-playing animals, press different numbers to change songs, or touch numbers on the keyboard to add in some funny sounds.
Connects to Computer for Additional Content
Parents can connect the laptop to a PC or Mac with the included USB cord to access even more games and activities. Once you have downloaded and installed the Learning Lodge Software, you and your child will be able to watch and listen to short stories downloaded from the internet, send and receive e-cards from friends and family, and download new vocabulary words for the picture dictionary. With the Learning Lodge Software, this laptop can continue to provide hours of fun as your child grows.
The Tote and Go Laptop comes with a one-year limited warranty.

A good educational value
I have a generally positive opinion about the Tote and Go Laptop. On the one hand, it has many educational activities--some more interesting than others--and my grandson enjoys using it. However, it isn't a toy that he, at 3 years of age, can entertain himself alone with. Yet it also isn't a toy that you can `play together' with. The adult interaction is more along the lines of ongoing tech support. (The toy is rated 3-6 years. I would rate it 3 to 5, at most).Keep in mind that, in this review, I'm rating it based on my experience with a 3 year old at the lower end of the spectrum. A 5-year old would probably not be frustrated or confused and need less supervision.It is aimed at a generation that has grown up accustomed to HD color TV's and monitors. This 2.5" wide black and white viewing area with stiff little figures made up of pixels in which only some parts move is somewhat underwhelming. (Ex: the talking little dog stands stiffly, but moves his eyes and...

Great First Laptop for Toddlers
The Vtech Tote & Go Laptop Computer with Web Connect is a great toy! It recommended for children 3-6 but my 18 month grandson took to it immediately. Perhaps because he sees all of his family using laptops and iPads, he was thrilled to be able to finally "push the buttons" he never can on the others. He quickly learned the on and off switch and even learned the word "soon" as the person says "See You Soon" as it turns off. He played with the buttons and laughed with the pictures and when someone worked with him by showing him how to push the music button for instance, would dance and laugh with great glee. He liked the sounds the animals made and having just started to learn to count, was quite excited by being able to push 1, 2, 3 and hear the numbers he is learning. It is very durable and he would push back on the top and it would click and I feared it would break but it is going strong. He even taught me how when it is closed, the mouse fits in the top with an easy click and he can...

A rather narrow age range
I have two daughters, the younger one will be three in December and the older one will be five in November. This laptop seems to be squarely between their ability levels. It's far too easy for my older daughter, although she likes playing with it anyway. She likes to get "100" on all the games (and she gets rather frustrated if she gets anything less). On the other hand, it's too advanced for my younger daughter, although she can do some of the activities with adult help. For one thing, the younger one hasn't been able to figure out the mouse, so she can't work the games on her own. But even with adult help to work the mouse, she still needs help with the games themselves. It appears that this game is appropriate for children perhaps three to four and a half - ages when children are learning basics such as letters and numbers.For Christmas we bought the younger one a "Leaptop" by Leap Frog. This children's laptop is quite a bit better. This laptop has quite a bit...
