As a daycare provider I feel that this is an excellent toy. A comment to the last review; I believe that the manufacturers use the age levels as a guideline for parents. It is up to the parent to determine what the capability of their child is. Just handing this to your child and thinking that your child is going to enjoy playing with it, is not going to happen. As with any other learning toy it takes a parent to teach the child how to use the toy. Only then will your child get the most out of it, and it won't end up in the closet. All children learn at different paces.

My 4-year-old is having a terrific time playing with this book. It is small enough for her to use in her booster seat on the way to and from preschool each day. It took her about 10 minutes sitting with me to learn the different uses of the pen, games, and pictures and then she was off and running with it. She enjoys playing with it for 10-15 minutes at a time and then wants a break.

I have a 20 month child who is very excited to recognize the alphabet, colors, shapes, and numbers. With adult supervision, she is able to play with this LeapPad appropriately. To the parent complaining that an excited 3-year-old shouldn't be expected to know not to carry the pad by the pen??? I say that when supervised and shown that certain toys warrant proper care, any age child can play with a LeapPad appropriately. We love this toy and are looking forward to puchasing other books as our child grows older!

When our daughter was almost 3 we bought her a leap pad for Christmas and we bought her this book. Out of 3 books she has this one is her favorite! She reads this book over and over!!! She is now a few months over 3 and knows her ABC's. You can point to any letter and she can tell you what it is and can sing the alphabet song. It is fun enough to keep a 3 year olds attention and the songs arent nerve racking. This was definatley a great buy!

My daughter has had her leap pad since she turned 2, almost a year now, and loves it. She has several titles, but this one is by far her favorite(even over Dora!!!!) She knows her letters by sight, she has for a few months now, and loves the music that goes along with the phonics. It's wonderful for car trips!!!

Santa brought this book with My First Leap Pad but our son age 2 1/2 at the time did'nt ever play with it. He is almost 4 now and he still does'nt play with it. He liked the books like Bob the Builder, Thomas the Train and Dora. He never took to the Leap and Tad books, even though he has several of the Leap and Tad books. I don't think I have been able to keep this book in the leap pad for more than 2 mins and he is taking it out and putting a different one in.
As a parent, I thought this was a very educational book, I really like it and think its a great book, but my son did'nt play with it so it was'nt the best choice for us.

My son just turned 4 and he loves the LeapPad. It is terrific for entertaining him on long car rides. My 1 1/2 year old daughter loves pointing the pen at the pictures; I think she's going to need her own LeapPad pretty soon! My only problem is keeping track of the little cartridges; it would be helpful if they were attached to the books by a cord of some kind (maybe elastic?).

My daughter just received this book and the First Leappad as a Christmas gift. It is one of the best Christmas gifts she ever received. She is learning to read, play music, learn body parts, colors, shapes, numbers, etc. while also having fun. With this educational toy, it allows you to repeat the words on the page and read along with the book. My daughter is only 4 and is learning to read. She is in preschool and is already good at knowing her colors, shapes, numbers and letters, but this toy just reinforces what she already knows. Plus, this toy is at a great affordable price. My next Leappad item to buy is the backpack so she has a place to store the books and cartridges.

My daughter just turned three and loves it, she picks it up herself and sits and does the letters and their sounds and the numbers and colors. The best investment for her. I would continue to buy the leapfrog (leapad) toys for her.

The leapPad has been wonderful for my 3 Year old he will play with that toy for hours and he learns alot from it. He will tell me the story and then so what he is talking about... So thankyou LeapPad for giving the children of today and tommarow the chance to grow. Sincerly, Terri. Cincinnati, Oh
