These days, it seems like kids are computer literate from birth. Even so, they still need a little guidance mastering the keyboard and mouse. VTech's Color Blast notebook is a stepping stone for kids who are still a bit overwhelmed by the family PC. The Color Blast Notebook comes with four activity cartridges that teach essential academic skills, and more cartridges are available separately.
