I've had a Video Smarts console since it was first introduced. I will submit a picture sometime this week. In my opinion, it's one of the best learning products ever produced. I used it for my niece who was born in 1985 and for my children born 1990 and '95 as well as for the children I tutor. I've always produced videos for my students to assist with their learning so the Video Smarts Console was and still is perfect. I have one working model left as well as a console that does not work. I'm looking for someone to fix it. The students love the interaction. They will literally fight over who will be first to press the buttons to answer the questions presented. The truly do learn from Video Smarts. The videos are as important today as they were years before. V-Tech should bring it back.

I bought Video Smarts for my son who was born in 1985, he used it then my daughter and then all my nephews. I still have it and 7 tapes in the storage closet. (saving it for my grandchildren!!) It was the absolute best teaching tool!! They really should come out with a DVD version. The colors were wonderful and the songs and the interaction with the game held their attention. It was always a favorite with the kids.

My oldest daughter also used Videosmarts, she was born in 1985. I remember that she loved it! I saved it for many years, but then sold it and the tapes a few years ago thinking I would have no more children. Well, last year I had another baby. Last week, I found the old Videosmarts console (I never sold it after all!). It looks a bi corroded where the batteries were, so I don't know if it still works. Plus, I still think I gave away the tapes, as I can't find them. Long story short, does anyone know of anyplace where I can buy the tapes? Thanks.

I don't remember too much about Videosmarts anymore, but I remember having this when I was young. I was born 1984, got it at 2 or three years old. I remember I LOVED getting to go into mom's room, have her hook up the Videosmarts, and I would sit and watch the tapes and pushing the buttons to answer the questions. Some day I may have to hunt downa working console and some tapes to check it out again, maybe let friends' children try it.

My younger brother and I used to love this game growing up. We had a house fire a few years back and unfortunately the Videosmarts game system was among the many things we lost. I've been searching everywhere for another system. This site is the closest thing I've found that actually proves that it once existed. I'm glad to have found at least a picture! I'd love to find someone that has a working system. I just remember forgetting to turn the system off after playing it and having it scare my mom with the "turn me off" announcement it had!

My sister and I are trying in vain to track down this console and we cannot find any information on it what-so-ever let alone the toy for sale. We loved this toy, especially the videos, so if anyone has it, could they please upload the VHS's on youtube or google video just so there is some evidence of this toy existing online? If anyone does that for us we are eternally greatful.

I bought the video console for our son who was born in 1986. The greatest educational tool ever!!! I wish Vtech would bring it back. Mine finally broke and I really miss sharing the education with the new generation.

I was born in 1985 and I remember having a Videosmarts. It taught me well and I loved Teaching Teddy so much. It was a great learning tool and I wish they had an update for my toddler.

I dig video smarts! I was born in 1982 and I had video smarts...what a amazing thing for a child. I think my favorite was the alphabet town one. The console was really a trip..."turn-me-off..." and then there was the fake water fish. What made me think of this was the windows logo...because it has the same four colors; but in the opposite layout. Let's get ready it's Teachin' Teddy and we're sure to learn some...

I was born in 1986 and I LOVED LOVED LOVED this toy! I wanted to buy it for my baby cousin but I can't find it anywhere. My mother says it's the reason (and Sesame Street) that I turned out to be so smart.. lol. Does ANYONE have any idea where I can get one? Maybe the person who runs this site should send all of these comments into the makers of it so they can redistribute.

I have a Video Smarts game system for sale on Ebay under the name ibayedit

I am also listing a video smarts game on ebay 1/10-08.

I recently bought a video smarts system off Ebay, and also found on the internet a site where i bought 8 brand new tapes. We bought this for my daughter in 1985 and she is graduating college with a teaching degree and is going to use this in her classroom. I also have a 8 year old who loves teaching Teddy. I will try and post pictures of the system and games I have...

I loved this game as a kid. My sisters and i would always play it. However i tied the wires to a chair so they had to be cut, but id love to get another one. Anyone know where?

My sister and I both loved Video Smarts too. Myself like many of you are true 80's children and I would love to have some of the tapes that came with the console. My mom just found a console with 2 of the tapes (Numbers 1-20), but we would really like to have the letters and sound tapes. ABCDEFG... C and K say Ca Ka Y says Yuh Yuh L says Luh Luh X says X. Loved It

I love Video Smarts as weel. I am also an 80's baby and had this game since I was a child. I would say I'm going to save this for my children and now the time is here. During the years the system broke down and I only have three tapes in hand. I wish I could find more...Please help. My children , although we don't have the system learn alot for the tapes alone. Please if anyone knows where I can buy Videosmarts with Teaching Teddy, please post. Thanks

Want to analyze character and teaching format for future generations. This was a great idea that can be utilized with today’s children via the internet. If anyone still has there video smarts VHS tapes am willing to pay $5 via paypal plus shipping contact me at ThethornZ@hotmail.com

I bought a Video Smarts system on ebay about a year ago. Ebay is really the only place to find one anymore. I had one as a kid and LOVED it! Except for the dreaded "TURN ME OFF" voice!! Now I'm looking for the Computer Smarts system they advertise in the Video Smarts videos. If anyone has any information on Computer Smarts, or could at least confirm it actually exists... that would be wonderful, especially if you know where I can find one! My email is hannahjkauffman@hotmail.com! I greatly appreciate it!

I had Viseo Smarts, Teaching Teddy, for all 3 of my children. I had saved it hoping to have it for my Grandchildren. Well, when my house burned down, we lost everything and the ironic part is that 15 years later, now that I have a 2 year old granddaughter, all I miss is my Video Smarts-Teaching Teddy game. If anyone knows where I can get one, please E-mail me. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved Teaching Teddy by Videosmarts. I still sing the song all the time. I actually contacted my mom to see if she still had the system put away somewhere. Hopefully she does because I loved it, and I'm hoping my daughter will love it, if we find it, Keeping our fingers crossed!!!

There is an old video smarts commercial on you tube just search for videosmarts (no spaces). I have one that I bought on ebay a few years ago and I love it! I grew up playing with it and it is so funny to watch now. The only other thing I'm looking for is a computer smarts system. If anyone knows where to find one please leave a comment on here to let me know where I can get one!!!

Hi: Where can I find DVDs of video smarts? Also it seems wierd that the the device can communicate with the VCR simply via audio commands. Hi-tech 80s analog stuff!!!!! Thanks, Green

Green, they never came out with DVDS for video smarts, only VHS tapes... i wish they would though. There wasn't any talking with video smarts, you did all your answers with the 4 little buttons on the controller thing. The controller only talked when you left it on.

For those interested, I have just listed one of these on ebay. Includes 4 tapes.
