ToyQuest Touch Table Electronic Education System (Video) – The Touchscreen Table Aimed at Children

Tweet

Frankly, if I were still a child and was given a choice between a monster Lego set and this ToyQuest Touch Table Electronic Education System I know which one I’d opt for, but then things have changed since I’ve grown up and now it seems that children are never truly happy unless they’re playing around with some hi-tech gizmo – be it making their very first mobile call before they have even learned to walk or killing and maiming just about anything that moves (with that unsettling glint in their eye) as they play the latest gaming consoles.

The ToyQuest Touch Table EES is, in essence, a swivelling upward facing 21” TV with touchscreen capabilities that comes pre-loaded with a host or games and educational software from bowling to trivia games, on-screen art programs and photo organisation applications and even a video encyclopaedia and a Google Earth style mapping program with which children can verse themselves with the world at large. And, if children get board of the onboard games the ToyQuest Touch Table EES also comes with an integral DVD complimented by integral speaker units and a built-in Wii games console dock.

The ToyQuest Touch Table EES is due for general release this Autumn and is expected to retail for around $500 (for which you could get almost two whole sets of Lego at today’s prices).
