The VTech Videopainter — Creative Drawing Console
The VTech Videopainter was a creative drawing and painting console for children — a dedicated device that connected to a television and allowed young users to draw, colour, and create pictures using a stylus or controller on the television screen. VTech’s creative products complemented its educational gaming range by targeting artistic and creative development alongside the academic skills that its learning games addressed. The Videopainter represented VTech’s recognition that children’s electronic entertainment could encompass creative expression as well as games and educational content, anticipating the art applications that would later become standard on tablets and smartphones.
