The Baby Black Berry — Is having one too early?

by

Is it too soon to have your little kids send out instant messages to you on their very own Black Berry? This latest hand held device is built to do just that….or at least just copy the adult version. It resembles pretty much what mommy and daddy’s very own sets are like, with the right QWERTY keyboads and all the enhancements. The only thing different is the cutesy colors…and no it isn’t wireless capable (should we be alarmed if it was?) and it doesn’t also have a SIM Card function.

The Baby Blackberry is actually called the Text and Learn tool and toy built  for toddlers and young kids from KRESTA. It will teach pre-schoolers to identify letters, spell out simple words or their names, and focus on basic computer skills….which should be good because you know, kids start becoming technical younger and younger these days, right? It’s the way of the times. Other learning activities to this gadget include shape identification and letter matching as well as navigating on a proper QWERTY handset keyboard.

When little kids want to mimic their parents using their Black Berry, they can actually do it with their very own handheld set now thus risk losing the data from mom or dad’s phone! I wonder if this one has cutesy sounds that appeal to younger children.

The Text and Learn Kresta will hit the stands in the summer and will be priced at $25.00.

This gadget was recently unveiled at a UK Toy Fair.
