VTech Alphabet Apple

Product Information

Lots of rehearsal and organisation is needed to use memory to its full advantage; repetition is an important part of both infant and childhood learning. Older infants can remember, for instance, how to press a toy animal to make a sound even if the toy is slightly different to the one which the adult used to demonstrate. Adults can facilitate babies’ language development by playing with them, focussing on particular toys, reading books and naming everyday objects. Babies begin to learn about conversational turn-taking from an early age; if a baby is babbling the adult waits for a pause and then talks to the baby.

The apple includes eight modes of play with progressive learning levels that introduce letters, phonics, words, time concepts, music and more. Switch to the music mode for 26 melodies with blinking lights that promote verbal and visual discovery. These young children are playing independently but they are also reinforcing their understanding of the social world by acting out scenarios.Toys and computer games that facilitate independent activity at the right level for the child enhance problem solving skills and increase hand and eye coordination. Toys that name alphabet letters and everyday words satisfy young children’s need for repetition and rehearsal when practicing words and sounds.

Infants’ memories become less context dependent at the same time that infants start to crawl and walk. With seven fantastic modes of play the Alphabet Apple has lots of exciting and challenging learning games that increase in difficulty giving new levels of game play! If you can find the older version the Alphabet Singing Radio its even better; pitty Vtech did away with it. This interactive learning apple features 26 light-up buttons with letter-specific animal graphics to introduce letters and animals. The initial play experience for infants is when they begin to explore through moving and acting upon the world.Move the worm clock hand around the play clock to explore time concepts, then switch to Feed the Hungry Worm to practice counting. This means that children can use deliberate mental activities, such as visualisation, to increase the chances of retaining information in working memory and then shifting it to their long-term knowledge base. Young children learn how to interact with other children through play but they can also explore and learn independently.
