CHICAGO, April 12, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- LeapFrog® Enterprises, Inc., a leader in innovative educational toys for children, today announced the latest additions to its award-winning infant and preschool lines, including interactive plush pals and engaging role-play toys. The new items include My Pal Scout Smarty Paws™, My Pal Violet Smarty Paws™, Clean Sweep Learning Caddy™ and Ironing Time Learning Set™.

"We are so excited about the relaunch of our iconic Scout and Violet plush pals and their new innovative touch-sensitive technology – we love seeing little ones' faces light up when they hold the pups' paws and Scout and Violet interact with them," said Andy Keimach, President, VTech Electronics North America, LeapFrog's parent company. "In addition, our new toys are perfect for pretend play that builds young imaginations and makes learning fun and exciting."

The adorable My Pal Scout Smarty Paws and My Pal Violet Smarty Paws offer magical moments when little ones and parents hold hands with each other and the toy for a special interactive experience. These new cuddly friends feature music, games and mindfulness activities while introducing first words, counting, feelings and emotions. They can even be personalized while still in the box, making them the perfect gift! The interactive Clean Sweep Learning Caddy comes with cleaning tools and a delightful bucket that lights up and sings. Playful learning modes help little ones discover colors, counting, directions and more, plus they can boogie to hilarious cleaning commands and hear funny squirting sound effects. For even more role-play fun, the Ironing Time Learning Set helps kids learn about shapes, colors and counting through engaging learning activities. The light-up, motion-activated iron plays songs, silly phrases and sound effects as kids iron the included play clothes.

My Pal Scout Smarty Paws™ & My Pal Violet Smarty Paws™: Cute, cuddly and customizable, My Pal Scout Smarty Paws™ and My Pal Violet Smarty Paws™ make the perfect friends for your little one.
