(NC)-Modern parents should not be surprised if gigabyte and mega pixel are some of the first words in a toddler's vocabulary. Today's schools boast the most up-to-date technology - from wireless internet access to fully decked out multi-media rooms - resulting in a generation of tech savvy children.

2006 holiday wish lists will no longer be limited to gaming systems and DVD movies. Parents can now purchase a variety of high-tech gifts that are both educational and engaging, ensuring kids are properly occupied throughout the busy holiday season.

For parents looking to incorporate today's technology into traditional gift giving, Sony recommends the following products as practical and educational options:

Digital voice recorders - the perfect tool for children learning to memorize everything from multiplication tables to show and tell speeches. Older children will find digital Voice Recorders effective gadgets for staying on top of lessons and important details often missed from note-taking.

Notebook Computers - research for the annual science fair has never been so easy. At the click of a browser, children are able to access the largest library and research tool in the world - the internet. Children will love to read using a Sony VAIO Notebook and many of the available software programs can help children improve math, history, science and grammar skills.

Storage Devices - there's no excuse for the "dog ate my homework" or "my printer ran out of ink" with the MicroVault Tiny Storage Device. Students can now keep track of written papers and complete homework assignments on time. Whether at home, at school, or at a friend's house, storage devices make it possible to transport large files from computer to computer - talk about lightweight.

MP3 Digital Music Players - being active and healthy is an important part of any child's life. This year, students across Canada will be inspired to get involved with extra-curricular sports and after-school activities with Sony's new water-resistant walkman. Capable of adjusting play lists according to activity, this little companion can also track time, distance and calories, making it a perfect gift for students training to meet athletic goals.
