NEW YORK, Feb. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Today VTech®
announces its award-winning Go! Go! Smart Wheels® line will expand
to offer exciting new themes to further spark toddlers'
imaginations. With innovative SmartPoint® technology that truly
brings the toys to life, Go! Go! Smart Wheels offer engaging play
experiences while teaching first words, letters and more as
children explore cause and effect relationships. The new line is on
display at the 2018 North American International Toy Fair®.
"We're incredibly proud of the success and longevity of the Go!
Go! Smart Wheels line," said William To, President of VTech
Electronics North America. "We are always looking for ways to
refresh the line with new themes that will energize kids and
enhance their overall play experience, while continuing to offer
the engaging, multi-sensory learning and value we know parents
love."
Go! Go! Smart Wheels playsets maximize toddler fun, delivering
important developmental benefits that help children reach social,
emotional, language, cognitive, physical and motor milestones. As a
child places a SmartPoint vehicle on SmartPoint locations found
throughout the playsets, it will respond and engage children with
lights, sounds and music. The exciting, interactive Go! Go! Smart
Wheels Launch & Chase Police Tower™ will have kids racing,
chasing and patrolling the city with this engaging playset. They
can pretend to serve and protect as they patrol with Po the
SmartPoint Police Car and chase the Getaway Car around three track
levels, while exploring SmartPoint locations throughout. There is
also a new Go! Go! Smart Wheels Tow & Go Garage™ with nine
interactive SmartPoint locations that is sure to get little
gearheads revved up. If they'd rather take to the skies, the new
Go! Go! Smart Wheels Take Flight Airport™ will have them soaring as
they launch the SmartPoint airplane on the catapult up to the
cloud.
Highlights of the new Go! Go! Smart Wheels line, available later
this year, include:
Go! Go! Smart Wheels® Launch & Chase Police Tower™:
The Getaway Car is on the run and Po the Police Car is on the case
with the Go! Go! Smart Wheels Launch & Chase Police Tower.
Chase the Getaway Car around the three track levels, launch off one
of the two ramps to try and gain some speed or slide the switch to
raise the road blocks to slow him down! Your little one will love
the switch tracks, hidden trap doors and road barriers that add to
the excitement of the car chase. Help patrol with Po and get the
Getaway Car to the jailhouse and not the hideout. Featuring
SmartPoint® technology, Po responds to five SmartPoint locations
with fun sounds, phrases, three sing-along songs and six melodies.
The chase is on! Ages 1-5 years.
Go! Go! Smart Wheels® Tow & Go Garage™: Lift up
friends in need with Trent the Tow Truck and the Go! Go! Smart
Wheels Tow & Go Garage. Spend the day at the garage with Trent,
go up the elevator and explore the second floor where you can rest
your little engine in the parking lot or stop on the repair
platform and move the wrench back and forth for a quick tune-up.
Then, race down the ramp to the car wash to finish up with a nice
shine! Trent the Tow Truck features a movable hook to tow other Go!
Go! Smart Wheels® vehicles (sold separately) and SmartPoint®
technology that responds to all nine SmartPoint locations with fun
sounds, phrases, three sing-along songs and six melodies. Let's
pick up some buddies and tow and go! Ages 1-5 years.
Go! Go! Smart Wheels® Take Flight Airport™: Pack
your bags and take a trip with the Go! Go! Smart Wheels Take Flight
Airport. Launch Aaron the Airplane into the clouds, take a spin
around the tower and safely land at the gate. Little pilots will
enjoy all the pretend-play features including a gas pump, radar and
baggage claim. Fly over five SmartPoint® locations to hear
different phrases, music or fun sound effects, or press Aaron's
light-up button to hear cheerful songs and learn the letter "A".
Have a high-flying good time! Ages 1-5 years.
Go! Go! Smart Wheels® Vehicles: Perfectly sized for
little hands, these electronic vehicles entertain children with a
light-up button that activates phrases and sounds. Kids can either
fly or drive into playtime with a helicopter or truck, or save the
day with a police car. Nine popular vehicles have also been given a
new look. The vehicles respond to SmartPoint® locations on Go! Go!
Smart Wheels playsets (sold separately) with fun responses, sound
effects, lights and music. Ages 1-5 years.
