My First LeapPad is a fun, interactive way to introduce first learning concepts to pre-school children and is aimed at those who are not old enough to appreciate the LeapPad Interactive Reading System.Like the award-winning LeapPad before it, My First LeapPad is based around a software system that combines a "magic" pen with interactive books, in this case aimed at helping children recognise shapes, numbers, colours and first letters and words. The concept is simple enough: clip the "Leap's Big Day" book (included) on top of the First LeapPad, insert the cartridge into the station on its side, and press the green "Go" button. Each page has a different activity: choose from "Counting Farm", "Parts of the Body", "Count and Sing Express" and many, many more.
Visually exciting and very colourful, the illustrations are all self-contained, each centred around a situation that helps reinforce one or other first learning skill. For example, in "Parts of the Body", basic body parts are labelled, and if you press the "game" button, you are invited to press parts of the body while singing along to "Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes". You can even choose a different body part for the song, and change the title! In "Leap Hopped on a Train", relatives are tested, as readers are asked to point with the magic pen to the item "under Leap's arm" or the person "standing next to Tad", and so on. When you get to the end, simply turn the book around, and instead of single exercises, you can follow a series of scenarios that together make a full story.
The music is lively, and volume is adjustable. The First LeapPad is bold, chunky and wipe-clean, and all wiring and batteries are well hidden behind screwed-down casing. A handy handle is just right for little fingers, and it even gives you a warning when your batteries are running out.
The "Leap's Big Day" book is also sturdy, made out of durable, wipe-clean cardboard and strong plastic binding. Though the unit is technologically quite complex, the learning principles behind My First LeapPad are traditionally simple, based on repetition, reinforcement and good old-fashioned fun! Parents will probably need to spend time helping and encouraging youngsters as they get to grips with the unit, and the only thing to remember is to press the green "Go" button each time you turn a page.
Recent research has shown that the younger a child is exposed to letters and numbers, the earlier they will begin to learn how to count and write. My First LeapPad is undoubtedly a learning aid that will foster this progression and give your children a helping hand as they set out to learn. The only additional thing you will need is a backpack or bag to store the books, unit and cartridges safely together. --Susan Naylor
Aimed at pre-readers, the manufacturers recommend My First LeapPad for children aged 3 years and above. Requires 4 x AA batteries (not supplied).
Also available: Pooh's Honey Tree – My First LeapPad Interactive Book.

Disney Princess Stories is part of LeapFrog's range of interactive books. designed to be used with their LeapPad Learning System. The pack contains a spiral-bound book and a cartridge. Simply slot both the book and the cartridge into the appropriate areas on the LeapPad and you're ready to start.This particular title is recommended for children at the "LeapStart" pre-reading stage of the LeapPad library, which is children up to five years old.
Little girls will love to join the tales, and get swept away by the magic of the Disney Princesses. They can help a friend with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, dress up and dance the night away with enchanting Cinderella, or the more adventurous will love to take the plunge and join the dramatic undersea adventure with Ariel. Music and song will encourage pre-schoolers through the book as the magic of Disney really comes to life.
Disney Princess fans will be comfortable with the bold, bright images that perfectly replicate the characters they know so well from film and stories. The book is superbly produced. The LeapPad comes with a special touch-sensitive pen--follow the story by using it to touch the words on the page. Parents will love the fact that as children read on, using the "magic pen", they will build basic skills: story comprehension, vocabulary, character dialogue, character comprehension, and recognise initial sounds and letters.
Disney Princesses will entertain pre-school children, (particularly little girls) and is designed, with the LeapPad, go build reading confidence. --Susan Naylor

Produced to be used with My First LeapPad, Pooh's Honey Tree is an interactive story and activity book to reinforce first learning concepts and, above all, make learning fun.The bright, bold illustrations are based on the modern Disney designs, and as youngsters turn each page, they are presented with a new activity or a new page from a story. Using the "magic pen" on the First LeapPad, pre-schoolers are encouraged to match shapes, find opposites, identify colours and shapes, match pairs, identify patterns and much more. When they get to the end of the book, they simply turn it around, and start to read the "Pooh's Honey Tree" story, following it word for word, again with the pen.
Sturdy, wipe-clean and visually appealing, the book is the perfect compliment for youngsters who have mastered the book included with the First LeapPad unit. It brings a fresh, innovative and interactive approach to learning traditional, basic skills with the help of an old favourite--Pooh Bear. Pre-schoolers (the book is aimed at 3+) will love to follow their friends in the Hundred Acre Wood, and won't even know they're learning. Great fun and a lovely way to get pre-readers interested in the written word. --Susan Naylor

Richard Scarry, the long-standing king of reading books for small children, is brought up to date in a partnership with the impressive LeapPad learning system, which combines interactive fun with serious educational substance.Designed for use with the interactive LeapPad as part of the LeapPad learning system, this book concentrates on the development of vocabulary: simply slot the special cartridge that is provided with the book into the LeapPad, press the "magic pen" on the green "go" button on the first page of the book and watch as your little readers have fun as they learn.
As children work through the book, following a simple story that introduces them to the sounds of words that describe everyday activities (reading, eating, getting dressed, watching TV, going to bed) or concepts (colours, opposites, numbers, the alphabet), spelling the words aloud or repeating them over again, more complex combinations are introduced, stretching their abilities and encouraging them to explore and discuss.
The LeapPad learning system is an ideal way to introduce even the most reluctant readers to the pleasure of books, and is a great way to share the pleasure of reading with parent and child. Children will love the interactive elements of the books--just run the pen over a picture and it speaks to you, touch an image at the bottom of the page and it plays a game; you can have the words repeated as often as is needed--they will quickly discover that learning doesn't have to be a chore. This book is for ages 4-6, and is designed for use with the LeapPad. --Susan Harrison.
