Welcome to the amazing world of T.J. BEARYTALES, where it’s always time for a story! In T.J.’s imaginative and captivating world, a story is more than just something to read… it’s a place to imagine possibilities and make great discoveries. T.J. doesn’t just tell the story; he asks questions and weaves engaging songs and activities right into the tale! This goes beyond just ABC’s and 123’s to include life skills like following directions and helping others. These skills help get your child ready... ready for school and ready to learn. Together with T.J., your child enters a big world of imagination where silly songs and belly laughs lead the way to a lifetime adventure in learning. T.J. BEARYTALES is a storytelling friend with fully animated mouth, ears, eyes and nose! His arms even gesture as he tells the story! His first story, My Big Birthday Surprise, is already programmed inside. Each additional 24-page illustrated storybook includes a cartridge (sold separately). Simply play the cartridge in T.J.’s backpack, and read along! You’ll also find additional activities in the storybook for you and your child to enjoy together! 4 D batteries required (not included) http://www.hasbro.com/common/demos/en_GB/playskool/tj_bearytales.htm
