Simply put – my daughter loves this laptop. She can pick from 40 different games, but her favorite mode already is in the adventure mode where she can pick her favorite character (for her that is always KoKo). It takes her through a series of different activities and when she gets them correct she earns a badge. The other night, I was working on my laptop and she sat next to me with her laptop and let me know she had some work to do too. She even asked if she could have computer time before bedtime so she could play with her Chuggington laptop. I have to admit that I have played it a few times myself and it was really fun.
The VTech Chuggington Traintastic Laptop features 40 learning activities in 5 different modes: Letters, Numbers, Logic & Games, Exploration Mode, and Adventure and features all of your favorite Chuggington characters. She can turn the train to which mode she wants and then pick the activity on her own. It is very easy for her to navigate on her own which is great so she can truly play with the laptop by herself. I think the sound effects and the animation on the screen are good quality. I should also mention that it appears to be quite durable as my 4-year-old has already dropped it a few times. I think this is a laptop that will grow with her and she will enjoy playing for some time.

I have to admit that I’ve never seen Chuggington, but that laptop sure looks like a fun toy!

Chuggington (in a fun way) tries to instill values such as loyal friendship, telling the truth, listening carefully, completing tasks, resolving conflict without violence – values I think some parents seem to forget about in this day & age.

Chuggington has been a great show for my son. I love that the show is able to grab his attention and help to teach him lessons. I love that my son is able to earn his own trains while potty training. The trains have finally motivated my 3 year old to use his potty.
