VTech Vsmile - worth the money? good present?

[sweetkitty]

DD2's 3rd birthday in a week and trying to think of something to get her, it's so difficult after Christmas when they got so much but what to get her something half decent.

Was thinking of a VTech Vsmile, it's on amazon just now for £26 the pink one with a Dora game.

I also have 4yo DD1 and thought it would be good for them to play together, they love being on the cbeebies website together playing the games on there but only one can play at a time and DD1 usually plays more as she has better mouse skills.

I have a pink Dora one that Im thinking of putting on Ebay. Got a couple of games with it - Dora, The Wiggles and Cinderella i think. Dont have the box though.

It is a good game. My DD1 loved it but to be honest she only played on it a handful of times because we had to swap the cables over every time and it was a bit awkward where her tv was at the time.

My DS got one at about this age and he got a lot of use out of it, until he was well past 5th birthday. In fact, if we plug it in now he'll still play with it for ages, and he's 6.6! I wouldn't recommend the art studio add-on though - doesn't do much and a bit of a waste of money.
