If you have a young child and an iPad or other tablet, chances are they are drawn to it. However, you can’t let them use it, as they could break your expensive electronics, and even worse, hurt themselves with it. Yet you would still like them to have access to learning apps. We’ll look at one solution to this quandary in this VINCI Tab II Touch Screen Learning Tablet Review.

The VINCI Tab II is a 7″ touch screen tablet, running Android, that is surrounded by a protective soft handle. Most toddlers like to put everything in their mouth, so it is fortunate that the handle is coated with a non-toxic food-grade material. While the plastic covering of the tablet itself doesn’t feel especially robust compared to the aluminum case of an iPad, the sturdy handle certainly will provide a lot of protection against drops. We ran into one quality issue with the hardware: the little camera lens cover came off when unboxing the Vince Tab II. We pressed it back on using the residual stickiness, but it didn’t hold very well.

Although child-safe hardware is important, the key to this product is software, namely the VINCI Curriculum. This software, which only runs on the Vinci Tab, is designed to use engaging games to provide incremental and interactive learning for children age 18 months through 5 years old. Our testing found the software adequate, but not impressive. Our 3 year old test subject didn’t find the software especially interesting or challenging, but she is approaching 4 years old and is admittedly very smart. Overall the VINCI software is a much better fit for toddlers, rather than kids at the upper part of the age range.

VINCI was created as a new category of learning tools for a collaborative and fun learning experience with the goal to engage, empower and educate young children and help them achieve early learning objectives. VINCI Tab II works in conjunction with the world’s first developmentally-designed digital learning curriculum, comprised of a series of age specific learning apps and assessment tools, and is the only technology platform specifically designed for toddlers and preschoolers.

VINCI Curriculum covers Thinking Skill, Emotional/Social Learning, Maths/Logic Reasoning, Language, General Knowledge, and Science. VINCI Curriculum apps are designed to run only on VINCI Tab.

As typical for GeekAlerts reviews, we like to show a LEGO minifigure in a picture for size comparison purposes. In the above picture you can see Black Widow, a minifigure that comes with one of the new Avengers Lego Sets.
