On the 2009 International Toy Fair in Nuremberg Oregon Scientific presented their new Barbie™ “Thumbelina” learning laptop TH 68 that accompanies the official Barbie film release this spring. Oregon Scientific wows little girls aged 3+ with their new Thumbelina learning computer featuring wonderful flower ornaments and child-appropriate learning activities.

Barbie™ introduces little girls from all over the world to her colourful fantasy worlds. The main character of her latest entertainment adventure is “Thumbelina”. Together with the little Twillerbees™ she lives on a large remote flower meadow – far away from any human being. Suddenly her paradise is threatened by a married couple who want to build a factory on their very wildflower patch. When picking the beautiful flowers, their spoilt daughter Makena discovers Thumbelina and decides to take her home as her newest toy. But Thumbelina cleverly avoids being presented to Makena’s peers and even wins her friendship. In the end, they work together and are able to prevent Makena’s parents from destroying Thumbelina’s magical world.

Oregon Scientific translates this fantastic entertainment property into the new Barbie™ Thumbelina Learning Laptop TH 68. The computer will soon excite little children with its highly details flower design in pink and light green.

Thumbelina accompanies her little flower friends through eight learning activities: Recognizing letters and shapes, capital and small letters, easy counting, memorizing and logical thinking. In addition, the “music” chapter provides acoustic stimuli through digital sounds. Thumbelina presents all learning activities on the LCD display and provides valuable advice.

In March 2009 the learning computer Barbie Thumbelina TH 68 is launched to the German market at a SRP of Euros 24.90. The laptop is available at specialized stores and on the internet at http://www.oregonscientific24.de.
