What Parents Need to Know
About V-Motion Active Learning System
Parents need to know that this is a new motion-activated gaming system for children ages 3-7. The controller doesn't work as well as the Wii remote, but it creates an intuitive way for young children to play video games. If you want a character to jump, you pull up on the controller, and if you want the character to run to the right, you tilt the controller to the right. The introductory game that comes bundled with the system is not very good, but the add-on games are much better. The add-on Kung Fu Panda game has mild violence in it, since the character uses martial arts to get things done.
