Chatman, an awesome new device geared toward kids (ages 6-12), is a bright yellow, interactive emoticon-like computer friend for everything your child does online. And, for a limited time, now through mid-April, toysrus.com will offer Chatman at special Spring Break pricing of $49.99.

I really like that dual idea behind Chatman. When kids plug him into their computers via USB port, it becomes a unique, fun, interactive experience that includes:

• Help with homework – ask Chatman a question and he will either answer or will help your child browse for the answer online (filtering out inappropriate content.)
• Access to more than 1,000 children-friendly games and videos.
• A way to keep children organized with a tool allowing them to set reminders and alarms for birthdays, tests, sports and more.
• Software which supports both Windows (XP with Service Pack 3 or higher, Vista or Seven) and Mac OSX Snow Leopard 10.6 or higher systems
  

Chatman also helps to keep kids safe online since one of Chatman’s important features is the integration of parental controls. Chatman works with and filters a child’s online conversations on Facebook, Skype and MSN Messenger. Chatman alerts when inappropriate web searches are attempted and, since it’s not a stand-alone chat platform, there are no worries about “stranger danger”.

Chatman’s recommended retail price is $69.95-$74.95 and is available at Toys “R” Us Times Square in New York City, toysrus.com, bestbuy.com, HSN.com and target.com.

But dont forget through a special Spring Break promotion, toysrus.com is offering special pricing on Chatman for a limited time, through mid-April of $49.99.
