The LeapFrog LeapStart is an all-in-one interactive early learning system for children ages 2-7. The LeapStart is designed to help little ones build an practice new skills including reading, phonics, problem solving, shapes, colours, social skills and more.
The LeapStart learning system features two different devices, The LeapStart Jr. has a smaller stylus designed for little hands and the LeapStart Sr. helps older children practice finer pen control. We received the LeapStart Sr. to try and the system came just in time for our boy’s school summer break.
Both of LeapStart systems work with a library of 16 activity books featuring content for Preschool through 1st Grade. We received a selection of the books as well for both our Preschooler and our future 1st Grader. Our youngest one loves listening to the alphabet and practicing his colours and shapes, our 5 -year-old loves the more advanced books and his favourite book is the Space Science at the moment.
I love that the LeapStart device is portable and kid-tough, easy to carry and take on the go as well. Each LeapStart comes with a stylus, sampler book and a downloadable Guide to Getting Kids Ready for School. Two AA batteries are required and not included. Any additional books are sold separately.
If you are looking for a fun, interactive and educational activity for your children to do during the summer break then I recommend you check out the new LeapStart system from LeapFrog. Great for travel as well.
