Author's Review

Introduction-
Fisher Price Smart cycle is an interactive educational toy aimed at children in the 3-6 age range.
It combines both physical and mental interaction that will help to develop your child in their early stages of development.
With a wide range of extra game cartridges available you should have no problems in keeping them entertained for hours and be safe in the knowledge that they are getting both mental and physical stimulation.


So exactly what is a Smart cycle?

Well it is an educational toy that takes the form of a cycle for indoor use, not too different from an exercise bike but smaller in scale to cater for the 3-6 Childs age range.
It is also fitted with an electronic game cartridge system that plugs into your TV via an audio/video cable which is already attached to the unit. You are supplied with one game cartridge and as mentioned the cable comes fitted to the smartcycle, you also have the option of buying different cartridges for the system which will keep your child interested for a long time after the initial purchase.

On opening the box-

The product will require some assembly and you are provided with easy to follow instructions to aid you in this task. Assembly should take you around 20-25 minutes and you will need to have a Phillips screwdriver to hand as you are not supplied one with the product. The assembly of the seat, pedals, handle bars and base is all that is needed to be performed.
The seat is fully adjustable to cater for different sized children to allow for its use to be as comfortable as possible. The addition of an adjustable seat will allow for longer use of the unit as your child grows which will make this product a worthwhile invest for the long-term. You will also need 4x D size batteries as they are not included in the box (I find that I never have these size batteries available in my house so you will need to buy some with your initial purchase of the unit).

Getting started-

The supplied game cartridge slots onto the side of the smart cycle and is easy enough to be inserted and removed by the smallest of hands allowing your child to take ownership of the product from the beginning (the cartridge will only slot in one way so no danger of it being inserted incorrectly).
Then you will need to connect the audio/video cable to your TV with the yellow connector slotting into the yellow video connection and the red and white ones slotting into the left and right audio connections (everything is colour coded here so no danger of getting this wrong).The press the power button o to the on position and off you go (the power button is located on the front of the unit near the handle bars).

Controls-

The games on the cartridge are controlled by utilising both the handle bars for steering and the pedals for forward and reverse movement. There is also an easy to use joystick sited just below the handle-bars for use with games that are not cycle based.

The games-

The game cartridge comes with games that are based around three themes-

Driving-This is where you steer and pedal around a course with the aim of collecting letters and numbers(very educational) and can visit such places as maths mountain, shape lake, numbers field and letter creek.

Learn-sing the joystick you can play games and puzzles which have different difficulty settings that cater for different ages of children.

Race-Pedal as fast as possible against opponents on screen. Against the clock or even against another player. The faster you pedal the more speed you gain.

Summary-

An excellent toy for stimulating both physical and mental development of your child. Is fun to play and very easy to setup and use. With extra cartridges available your child will get hours and hours of fun to help keep an active mind and body. I would highly recommend this product and it is well suited for the 3-6 years age range.
