Takara-Tomy's JouJou Cube Touch is a toy that brings the low-tech stamp pad up to date for kids of this generation. The educational tablet toy involves a set of digital stamps that can be placed on the screen of a tablet. The stamps create interactivity on the 2D worlds, since certain stamp combinations yield special animations or effects.
The educational stamp sets come in different themes, such as transportation, animals and dinosaurs, maximizing the potential for touchscreen entertainment. The cubes themselves require no batteries and this modern iteration of the classic stamp pad also means that it's 100% mess-free and easy to clean up afterwards.
Although the JouJou Cube Touch instructions come in Japanese, the visual experience is universally understood.
