Product Description
LittleTouch LeapPad provides early learning in every book, on every page, with every touch. From your first reading experience together, to the independent toddler years, LittleTouch LeapPad is designed to build essential skills at an early age. Your little learner can bring stories to life with the simple touch of a finger. And because babies grow so quickly, this innovative system is designed to grow right along with them. Plus, the LittleTouch LeapPad library of books keeps your child engaged and asking for more. Each book lets you choose from three learning experiences that stimulate development. - Setting 1: Sparkling musical rhythms and sounds stimulate early brain development
- Setting 2: Short descriptive phrases introduce word-object association and build early language skills
- Setting 3: Fun-filled rhymes and early learning interactions develop preschool readiness
Includes a LittleTouch LeapPad starter book and activity cards with over 100 early learning activities that introduce ABCs, letter sounds, numbers, colors, shapes, reading readiness and more. LittleTouch LeapPad books and cartridges sold separately. Requires 4 "AA" alkaline batteries, not included.
Editorial Review
With a little help from a bigger friend (parent, guardian…), young children can launch into the world of learning via interactive books. Little Touch LeapPad is designed for tots 6 to 36 months, with three distinct levels of activities and stories: musical rhythms and sounds; short descriptive phrases; and rhymes and early learning. Stories or activity cards snap into the book frame, along with a story cartridge. Grownups will need to help little ones activate the book pages by touching the "Go" button every time a page is turned, as well as showing young "readers" how to touch pictures to make them come to life with developmentally appropriate narration and learning activities. A comfy cushion is attached to the LeapPad platform for cozy shared reading time. Four AA batteries required (not included). --Emilie Coulter

 Best toy for my son November 22, 2008
Sam
Of all the toys my 20-month son has, this is the one he loves the most.
Pros:
1. He gets to learn how/where to touch different area and get responses. It's not very hard for him to press. He gradually learns more ways to play as he gets to know the story better. He is a very curious boy and it's an excellent learning experience for him.
2. It's great for us to read with him. He like it better than reading normal books with us, because we can teach him how to find new ways to touch/read the book.
Cons:
1. As others said, on/off and volume button are not positioned well, although it's not a problem now after he gets tired of those tricks. Also, needs to hold the off key to turn it off. This is different from most toys we have.
2. It seems the library is limited. I hope it's easier to find more books.
for my grandson October 24, 2008
Donna Romine (birmingham,alabama)
Little Touch LeapPad I bought this for my Grandson who lives 3 states away. Though I haven't seen him interact with the toy, my daughter just raves about it. I was happy to find out she recieved the toy in 3 days...though I thought it would take a week or so.
Wasn't worth it. September 25, 2008
winnie (PA United States)
We purchased this toy for our DD when she was 1 year old. She is now 5, we have another child who is 3 and neither of them have really cared for this toy.
It is awkward to use. Sometimes you can press right over a symbol and get no response. That is frustrating for a toddler. This requires a lot of help and IMO you may as well forgo the electronic experience and just buy a lot of books in place of this gadget. When you think of the cost of buying this, and the cartridges...you could have quite a nice library of books bought for the same amount of money. (especially if you use Amazon's 4 for 3!)
If I had it to do over again I would have found one for sale at a yard sale to see if the kids would use it. Seems there is a glutton of used ones out there...
Again Leap Frog fails me... August 12, 2008
Sandra
Another christmas gift for my 1 year old now 20 months... he goes nuts with the volume controll, I tried to use it in the car while I drove, so he would have some entertainment... DONT DO IT.. I kept reaching back to reset it for each page.. not safe!! this is another toy you have to sit with them to get it to work, my son who is very independent, hates when I try to get it working for him, he gets upset with me and switches to another page... so for US its not good... if your child likes to sit in your lap and lets you turn the pages this would be great... I like that they have Dr Suese books for this! thats a + but I have only found Mr Brown can Moo... dont know if there are others and we are not getting any more leap frog items... I hope this review helps someone with a child like mine... also very durable... he throws it down in the car all the time, carry case was nice, since it keeps everything together in the closet haha
